- Up to 28 Weeks of Pregnancy
- Passengers may travel upon completing the Expectant Mother Pregnancy Declaration Form.
- From the 29th Week to the 36th Week of Pregnancy (up to the beginning of the 9th month)
- Passengers may travel if:
- The Expectant Mother Pregnancy Declaration Form has been completed.
- A “Fit for Air Travel” medical certificate, signed by a doctor within 24 hours of departure, is provided.
- From the 36th Week of Pregnancy (9th month)
- Passengers with normal pregnancies and no history of premature labor may travel up to the 36th week only.
- After the 36th week, travel is permitted only if:
- A medical certificate from the treating physician confirms there is no imminent delivery and specifies the expected delivery date.
- A “Fit for Air Travel” medical certificate, signed within 24 hours of departure, is presented.
- The Expectant Mother Pregnancy Declaration Form is completed.
