Arranging the urgent evacuation of a patient in Malaysia
There was no time to lose when we were tasked with coordinating an urgent medical evacuation from Malaysia. The patient was suffering a life-threatening aneurysm and an aircraft charter was the quickest way of getting him to a hospital in Singapore for treatment. Our experts sprung into action to get things moving.
Our Solution
Route: Penang > Seletar
Aircraft: Gulfstream G100
We needed an aircraft that could accommodate the patient, his wife, his brother, a doctor and a nurse. Our team proposed a solution in under 10 minutes, sourcing a midsize jet from a local operator with experience in medical evacuations.
Working around the clock to expedite the charter, we quickly secured discharge and acceptance letters from the two hospitals and liaised with the operator to ensure everything was in place for a smooth journey.
