Lufthansa Flight 
Special Patient Transport Compartment

HI Flying Medical team is familiar with all formalities and transportation of patients on Lufthansa long haul flights worldwide.

The Medical co ordinator team at Hi Flying is able to take medical clearances once we receive the medical report of the patient on our website online form.

A competent and experienced medical team - Doctor and Nurse or Paramedic accompanies the patient.

It is an alternative to Air Ambulance flights which can take a no of fuel stops and can be more expensive.

This is an excellent option for selected patients traveling to and fro - from Europe to Singapore or Middle east. 

Also alternatives like Commercial airline stretcher arrangements are also possible and chosen based on patient location and patient clinical status.

All transfers happen under the direct supervision of the Medical director.
