The problem is I will be 23 weeks pregnant and have been told I shouldn't fly in an unpressurized airplane. Does anyone know if the above two planes are pressurized or not?

Thanks for any replies
According to the FAA the Embraer 110 is pressurized. I couldn't find a definite answer on the Y12, but it's service ceiling is 22000 ft which means everybody would be dead if it weren't.
