My advice with a low lying placenta was to avoid anything strenuous. I don't think flying itself would count as strenuous but you would have to be careful with luggage. If you're traveling with someone make sure you get them to help lift your bags any time you need to, and make sure your hand baggage is light. Also depending on how many weeks till you fly, your placenta may have moved by then but I'm not sure if you'd get an opportunity to have another scan to check that.

Hey thanks a lot for replying, actually m travelling vid few cousins n my hubby for 4 days.. Luggage lifting is no issues as I hv so many ppl around me, all m worried is flying... I hv read so many comments dt say u gt air in ur stomach n due to air pressure bleeding starts n all dt... M on a relaxing holiday to goa, no exertions n no stressing out only relaxing....
