Long haul travel on tinzaparin

Hi friends!
It's my first time posting here but I just wanted to get some opinions. I'm 15 weeks pregnant and on daily tinzaparin injections (I have a family history of DVT). I would like to fly back to South Africa to visit my family but I am worried about the risk of DVT on a long haul flight. My consultant said I should be fine if I do lots of walking and drink lots of water, and the fact that I already am on blood thinners will help. But I wanted to hear if anyone else had flown long haul on tinzaparin or clexane?
