Medical Flights to and from Aruba are Available with Air Ambulance Worldwide

Medical flights and other air medical services are available to and from Aruba and the surrounding areas through Air Ambulance Worldwide. Aruba is a popular tourist destination, and when you are traveling with a serious medical condition (such as cancer, lupus, etc.), you should always be aware of the medical help available to you should you need it. For patients traveling to this tropical paradise, we have medical flights available to take you home to your team of specialists, should your condition worsen during your vacation.

While emergency situations are often associated with medical flights, not all uses of air ambulance transportation are for emergencies. Take a moment to review the options for flights available to you, such as:

• Emergency medical flights — Emergency flights are used in serious, life-threatening emergencies. These can be classified as medevac situations to take a patient to the nearest specialist by plane or helicopter. Other emergency flights can be scheduled to move a patient from a hospital in a foreign country to a hospital back home, after the patient is in more stable condition. In this situation, the patient would still be unable to travel via commercial flight and would require medical attention and equipment throughout the journey.

• Non-emergency medical flights — In some cases, patients who have serious health conditions will need to travel to meet with a team of specialists in another location or to visit family. Our non-emergency flights can transport patients safely to and from Aruba and other areas around the world to make sure they get the help and support they need.

• Medical escort services — Though not always common, some medical flights can be scheduled as a medical escort service. This means that a patient is able to fly in a commercial plane, but still needs limited medical attention during the flight. One of our medical professionals can accompany the patient during the flight and provide medical support without needing a fully equipped medical plane.

In addition to the exceptional medical care we offer our patients, Air Ambulance Worldwide is also committed to maintaining the highest standards of safety in the medical flights industry. We have proudly earned the ARGUS Gold safety rating and have received full accreditation for Special Care from the European Aeromedical Institute.
