Flying overseas at 32weeks, anyone done it? What about insurance?

Planning a 1 week holiday to the caribbean for some much needed R+R before baby number 2 arrives. Grandparents have kindly agreed to babysit for our son while we are away. Just wondered if anyone has flown when over 32weeks pregnant? Our insurance company has a 32week cut off point. Are there any insurance companies out there who will extend this by even one week? Typically cant get flights or husband holiday time earlier than this date, hence the advanced pregnant state. Leaving it to the last minute as usual! Any tips gratefully received.
Incidently, 1st pregnancy went on to 42 +2days and had to be induced even then, and fortunately no pregnancy complications such as pre-eclampsia to worry about so I should theoretically be safe to travel. My bump is (and was last time) very small so I could just wing it, but would like to be covered none the less.

berta - I did London-San Francisco when I was 27 weeks pg...but without the 4 year olds! I drank a lot of water, moved around a lot (no choice though with 2 4 yr olds) and insisted on an aisle seat. happy holiday and don't overdo it!
