Is It Safe To Take Warfarin For DVT And Positive For Heterozygous Factor 5 Leiden?

I am taking Warfarin due to a (resolved) DVT and testing + for heterozygous factor 5 Leiden. I m concerned about flying and having a nosebleed. I had one today, on the ground in mile-high Albuquerque. Do I have reason for concern, and, if so, what are my options?
