We have rounded up some of the most relaxing and luxurious destinations you’ll love where you can relax, explore and enjoy each other’s company.
What you need to know
It is safe to travel by plane while pregnant and the best time is during your second trimester. You may not feel up to it in the first few weeks due to nausea and tiredness and you should avoid flying after 37 weeks (34 if you are having twins). Check your airline’s policy and be aware that some may want a letter from your doctor stating how many weeks you are and if you have complications. Why not explore traveling by plane or car instead? You can access many parts of the United Kingdom and Europe using the rail network, especially if you take the Eurostar.

Tips for Pregnant Travel
Take plenty of breaks, walk around the plane or train, especially if you’re on a long flight, drink lots of water and try to get some sleep. Support tights will help with aching legs. Be sure you have all your travel insurance documentation with you as well as your pregnancy notes and a contact number for your health care team.
