The answer

Some scholars have permitted a woman to travel without a mahram if there is no fear of fitna (temptation/strife), even if it is not due to necessity, especially if the travel is by plane. If your travel is safe, we hope that it will be permissible for you to act upon the opinion of those who grant this permission.
