Is there a way to fly during my 34th week of pregnancy?

I need to fly during my 34th week to Europe and wondering if the local gp's give medical report allowing you to do so... or any airline that is more flexible on this. Any suggestions or comments are most welcome
The best way is to ask your ob gyne. As far as I know, only up to 7 months of pregnancy can a woman be allowed for air travel.
Don't listen to the guy who said to lie. I almost got stuck in Kuwait at 25 wks because QA thought I looked further along. I had an ultrasound report to prove it fortunately. Make sure you have a Dr note. Also, print out the policy from the website and follow it, and insist that they do too!
As long as you are healthy, just tell the airline that you are 32 weeks.. That be it, however if you want you can go to your local GP and get the certificate ..Good Luck
Most of the airlines consider as 'fit for travel' up to 32 week of pregnency. But, as of i know, Qatar airways allows to travel even it exceeds 32 week, subject to the condition that medical cerificate should state as 'fit' and also you have to sign an agreement with Qatar airways which states that they will not be resposible for the risk involved. You have to visit any of the qatar airways branch for signing the paper before the departure date.
