- Call us at +91-9575340786 with the patient's condition, current hospital and destination hospital.
- Our medical team reviews the case and confirms the aircraft, equipment and specialist doctor required.
- Ground ambulance pickup from the patient's location in Kochi — we coordinate directly with hospitals like VPS Lakeshore, Aster Medcity, Amrita Hospital or Rajagiri Hospital.
- Flight with full ICU care — a doctor and paramedic stay with the patient throughout, monitoring vitals continuously.

- One family attendant can travel on board, subject to weight and space limits.
