For Families

Whether a family member has become ill or hurt while traveling, or simply needs to be closer to you now, Air Escort can help.

If you have not arranged this type of travel before, it can be intimidating. But Air Escort’s comprehensive planning and medical air care will make you and your loved one more comfortable.

Our travel amenities include:

• All ground and air transportation logistics
• Priority airport check-in
• 24-hour access to our American Express VIP Services Desk
• Priority boarding and deplaning
• First-class airline seats
• Weather monitoring 48 hours prior to flight

Equipment and flight services include:

• Coordinating with attending and receiving health care facilities
• In-transit medical monitoring
• Portable DVT  compression to reduce risk of clotting
• Stretcher service (instead of a seat, if needed)
• Lift and transfer services for paralyzed patients
• Procedures for incontinence care for a worry-free trip
• Equipment designed by our staff to move immobile patients
• Equipment to support ventilated patients

Some families feel they can fly with their loved one, but there can be adverse reactions to flight, such as oxygen deprivation, fluid intake and flight sickness. Our staff is trained in altitude physiology and can keep patients safe in flight.

Non-U.S. Citizens:

Repatriation can be a huge challenge for families, but Air Escort often has transported hundreds of undocumented patients overseas to loved ones. Expertise includes:
