Hi I'm in the same situation. I'll be giving birth in Egypt, after all our PRs are issued. We r a family of 3 members. Husband, wife, and a daughter. I found out I'm pregnant after all our immigration visas have been issued. Our medical was done on july2012, which gives me a dead line to do our first landing on june2013. Same problem I'll face of the airlines. So, pls tell me what have u done. Did u succeed to postpone the first landing? Or did u succeed to sponsor ur baby?

This thread was started by Kikokit on July 3/2010... side profile shows landed on July 12/2010
Looks like they found an airline that allowed pregnant wife to fly!
Not sure if Kikokit is still following the forum as it is almost 3 years.
Good luck

hi.

my wife is 8 months pregnant now and the airline refuses to let her travel. the problem is i told the Visa office that my wife will give birth in canada... can i proceed with my landing and let my wife and son stay in my home country until the baby is born? and since our papers are finalized, can i just sponsor my new born child? thanks a lot!!!!!!

can you travel by ship ?

Like I said previously, Cathay Pacific accept passengers with single pregnancies up to 36 weeks:

Philippine Airlines accepts up to 35 weeks, AND Manila to Toronto now flies 'direct' ie 'non-stop'.

I dont really know now,its on their website yes but in reality they wont allow any 8 months pregnant to travel pfff.

When does the visa expire? Because nothing can extend it. I think she will have to land 6 weeks after giving birth. The baby can be sponsored.

Yes, paperwork (medical certificate) is certainly required at that point. It appears that Cathay Pacific will accept one from "your" doctor and PAL only from "their own" doctor.
