Frequently Asked Questions
Can evacuations take place directly from Zanzibar?
Yes, flights can launch from Zanzibar Abeid Amani Karume Airport.
What is the cost of an air ambulance from Dar es Salaam?
The cost of a medical flight depends on the flight distance, the type of aircraft required (turboprop vs. mid-size ICU jet), civil aviation landing permit fees, and the level of medical crew needed. Contact our 24/7 coordinators to receive a transparent, itemized quote based on the patient's specific diagnosis and transfer requirements.
Can you handle bed-to-bed transfers in Dar es Salaam?
Yes. We provide complete bed-to-bed medical transportation. This includes dispatching a fully equipped ICU ground ambulance at the origin to pick up the patient from their bedside, transferring them directly to the aircraft tarmac, and coordinating another ICU ambulance at the receiving end to transport them directly to the destination hospital room.
What medical equipment is carried onboard the aircraft?
Our medical jets are configured as mobile intensive care units. Standard onboard equipment includes state-of-the-art transport ventilators, multi-channel cardiac monitors, invasive blood pressure lines, defibrillators, multiple infusion pumps, emergency medications, and specialized high-capacity oxygen systems.
How long does it take to coordinate a medical flight from Dar es Salaam?
For domestic and short-haul international flights, we can typically secure permissions and launch the aircraft within 2 to 4 hours. For long-haul intercontinental evacuations requiring multiple overflight permits or visa coordination, it may take 6 to 12 hours. Our team works directly with civil aviation authorities to minimize delays.
Is a doctor present on all air ambulance flights?
Yes. All Healers Global air ambulance charters include a qualified critical care flight physician and an experienced trauma nurse. Our clinical teams specialize in aerospace medicine and are trained to manage high-dependency, ventilator-bound patients at high altitudes.
