flying during pregnancy

Im 27 weeks pregnant with twins. I would like to know if i would still be able to fly in an airplane?I'm thinking about planning a vacation to St Louis Missouri to go see family before the babies are born. My doctor wants to take them out at 35 weeks.

Hi I flew at 27 weeks with one baby. You have to check with the airline. I went with easy jet and they allow up to 35 weeks. X

I know some airlines wont carry pregnant ladies after 27 weeks and i would say you are at higher risk than single pregnancies. Ask your doctor and airline as they will need a letter from your doctor stating it is safe to fly
