It does. To a greater or less extent. All the planets are moving away from the sun within our galaxy, due to the ever lasting impact of The Big Bang, over 14 billion years ago, even to the extent that the moon is moving away from Earth one and a half inch every year.Hence, the pulling effect is way too less as compared to the pushing effect.

What prevent the planets from flying off into space?

The easy answer is gravity. The pull of a star's gravity keeps the planets in orbit in almost equal amounts of centripetal force pulls them away.============================================Another contributor clarified:The answer is 'gravity'. The more massive the body, the more gravity it has."Centripetal force" is any force that pulls awayof the path, such as swinging around a weight attached to a string. The faster you spin it, the heavier it seems to become.
