Austrian Airlines accept pregnant women who are more than four weeks from their expected due date, as birth in Central Europe occurs too early in 6 or 7 % of the cases, around the 38th pregnancy week.

Each risk pregnancy means an absolute no for flying!

A pregnant woman should consult her gynecologist or treating doctor prior to every flight during the pregnancy as there could be a higher risk of the development of a deep vein thrombosis.

With healthy newborn babies it is possible to fly only 7 days after birth. However, the mother is advised to consult with treating doctor regarding increased thromboses risk after birth.

A baby basket is a baby bed provided by the airlines on long-range flights to accomodate babies up to 6-8 months old. It is free of charge and should be reserved at booking as there are only a few special such seats available per flight
