Brief Answer:
yes its safe

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for the query to hcm,
The overall USG report is normal , just that placenta is low lying but anything more than 25 m from the internal os is any ways safe and not likely to be placenta previa.
In view of that , it is safe to travel by flight at 28th week of gestation.
