Because Global Air Ambulance offers a range of patient transfer services, we can provide you a choice between faster air ambulance and other medically viable options such as long distance ground transports. Global Air Ambulance provides multiple patient transfer options to meet your financial needs.
Air Ambulance:
Private aircraft outfitted as flying intensive care units with medical staff, equipment, and medicines to meet the medical needs of the most critical of patients.
International Airline Medical Stretcher:
Out of New York, multiple international airlines allow Global Air Ambulance to place a stretcher in the rear of the aircraft to bring patients onboard for transport to international destinations.
Airline Medical Escorts:
For patients that can sit, Global Air Ambulance can assist patients with registered nurses in first class or business class seats to transfer anywhere in the United States or worldwide.
International seats lay flat to allow patients to sleep for most of the duration of the trip.
Long-distance Ground Ambulance or RV service:
For patients that must lay down, cost can be a factor. Many patients can be transported by ground at less cost than air ambulance.
From New York, We fly most patients domestically by LearJet Ambulances. The LearJet allows for two family members to accompany the patient, flies higher and faster than a commercial jet, and can travel to most destinations within the United States without a fuel stop.
For international trips, you may prefer the larger Gulfstream Air Ambulance. The Gulf Stream can fly longer between fuel stops, which may reduce the number of fuel stops between New York and your international destination. The Gulf Stream ambulance jet also contains a full lavatory and standing head room, making a more comfortable international flight for the passengers.
