Yes. A pacemaker is not a problem for air travel. Furthermore, airline galleys do not use microwave ovens, but convection ovens.

If it is a concern, be sure to let the flight attendants know about your pacemaker so they can be ready with the proper response if there is an emergency.

People with pacemakers should not sit on the row next to the emergency exit, as passengers near the emergency exit should be able and ready to assist others in the case of an emergency landing.

If you wish to fly as a pilot. You will be required to get a waiver issued from a cardiovascular specialist before you can be issued an FAA medical certificate.
