Well, in a normal pregnancy without any risk factors, and if one can manage the stress and hydration of travel, and if it is something unavoidable, one may go for it.
Next Steps
I can find out one risk factor from the information given that is age of 35 years, though not a big risk, if all other parameters of the blood tests and scan are normal.
Also things to be considered are whether the pregis a natural one or an assisted one, meaning an IUI or IVF
Health Tips
In any case it is an individualised decision after complete discussion with a gynecologist.
