You can travel,its safe until you have some kind of medical history or on some kind of special medication.
Otherwise there will not be any complication.

Travelling by flight at 12 weeks is permissible in pregnancy .;provided no obstetric/ medical complications. When pregnancy is straight forward there is no evidence that flying is harmful to you or your baby.If u are taking a short haul flights under 4 hrs unlikely you will need to take any special measures
