Flying over the holidays?

Is anyone planning on flying anywhere over the holidays? I'm due Feb. 9, so will be 33 going on 34 weeks when I'd be traveling. My doctor's office said that generally after 32 weeks, they prefer you don't fly (not the case for everyone, but depends on how the pregnancy is going). I'd be taking a 2.5 hour flight followed by an hour long drive both ways. Thoughts? I'd be sad not seeing my extended family and my mom is pressuring me, but ultimately I want to do what's best for me and my baby.
