I believe that most airlines allow travel until the last 2 wks. But I would check to make sure.

ring the airline and ask first what their policy is.
Usually 34-36 weeks is the cut off for domestic/short term travel but if you have a letter from your doctor saying its alright, they may let you on the flight.

only 2 hours? doesn't seem like a problem. It would be different if it were longer.

Technically there is no harm to the fetus with flying but the airline may not want to deliver a baby onboard.

Ring the airlines, I travelled at roughly the same time, as long as your GP says its alright,I really dont see any problems.

two weeks ago i went to visit my sister and i check the airlines most airlines will allow you to fly untill 10 days before your due date. Just in case you should get a letter from the doctor stating your due date and that he is consenting for you to travel. there should be no problems

Airlines set their own limits so you'd be best speaking to whichever airline you're flying with. If you're within their limit they should be happy with a note from your doctor to say that you're fit and healthy.
