Can passengers travel with a patient?

Passenger and Patient Travel on an Air Ambulance

>Usually one or two passangers can accompany a patient on an air ambulance flight. If the patient is in critical care, then it is possible more room will be used for the patient. Extra medical personnel and equipment such as respirators and monitors are used in certain circumstances.

In the cases where there are two medical personnel special equipment, one passenger might be allowed to fit on the aircraft. This depends on the length of the flight and room on the plane.

In a routine air ambulance run, one, two or three passengers can fly onboard. Bigger aircrafts are available for familes that wish to have a few passengers onboard. Generally speaking , however, one or two passengers can fly.

**Please keep in mind that the amount of luggage has to be limited to two or three medium size bags. The medical equipment and stretcher onboard most air ambulance aircrafts use up a good portion of the space. If the aircraft operator is unable to fit your bags onboard, they can always be shipped.

Pets can sometimes be arranged to travel as well. Please call us in advance so we can help you arrange that.

On large executive VIP air ambulance flights, up to 12 or even 40 passengers can be onboard. Please call us for more information regarding VIP flights with multiple passengers.

What Our Happy Clients Speak

I would like to thank everyone involved from turning a potentially difficult experience into an enjoyable one. My mother,Mary, and I enjoyed the flight, and the flight nurse, was terrific. He really allayed all our fears, and we felt perfect confidence in him.

The pilot and first officer were also wonderful and instilled great confidence in us. All in all, it was a marvelous trip and we can’t thank you enough!!!

This letter commends the efficiency and professionalism of your organization during the recent transport of our aunt, Lisa Cordero, from New York City to Cleveland. The flight crew was courteous and helpful. Your flight coordinators were exceptionally competent in arranging a quite difficult transfer.

Where we have had frustrations with lawyers, bankers, and doctors, we had only the most ‘can do’ attitude from all of your staff. We have recommended your service to a colleague and will continue to do so without hesitation.
