Overview
The right aircraft, the right team, the right approvals.
Moving a patient by air needs a suitable aircraft, a trained medical team and the right approvals. We pass every medical request only to operators able to carry patients.
We do not give medical advice. The treating doctor decides what the patient needs on board.

- Journeys home after treatment elsewhere

Questions
Good to know.
How are medical flights different?
Medical flights need more detail, such as the patient's condition and the care required on board. We pass these requests only to operators able to carry patients. In an emergency, say so at the start of your request.
