Air Ambulance Repatriation between Malaysia and the UK

Pemindahan Balik Ambulans Udara antara Malaysia dan UK

SkyCare is a UK-based medical repatriation service, providing urgent air ambulance repatriation from Malaysia to the UK.

Our professional crews include English and Malay-speaking medical teams, ensuring seamless communication and expert in-flight care.

As operators for air ambulance services to Malaysia, we coordinate repatriation flights from major international airports including Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), Penang International Airport, Kota Kinabalu International Airport, and Johor Bahru’s Senai International Airport. Given the long distance between the UK and Malaysia, flight durations typically range from 12 to 14 hours.

Our bed-to-bed service ensures a smooth transition, collecting your loved one from a hospital or residence in Malaysia, providing continuous medical care throughout the flight, and delivering them safely to their care destination in the UK. We also offer medical escort services on commercial flights, pending airline approval, and airside patient transfers.

SkyCare offers three main travel options for patients needing medical repatriation to or from Malaysia:

  1. Commercial Flight with Medical Escort (Cheapest Option): For patients who can sit upright but require medical supervision throughout the flight. This option is subject to acceptance by the airline.
  2. Commercial Stretcher Flight: For patients who cannot walk or bear weight, where they are safely secured on a stretcher with medical staff for the duration of the flight. Airline approval is required.
  3. Air Ambulance Flight: For patients with critical conditions who need urgent, intensive care during the journey. This option is the fastest and most comprehensive, with specialised medical staff and equipment onboard. The decision for a patient’s fitness to fly is made by our doctor based on a full medical report, ensuring the patient’s safety.

SkyCare’s experienced team can manage patients with any level of medical need, from urgent critical care cases to non-emergency medical repatriations. We handle every aspect of the journey, providing regular updates and compassionate support to families during this stressful time.

We work with private individuals, families, insurance companies, UK ambulance trusts, the NHS, and private hospitals across the UK and Malaysia.

Commercial Medical Escort from Boston, MA to London

SkyCare made a complex overseas transfer from Boston to London feel effortless. Craig and Sarah were outstanding — calm, professional, and always in touch. They handled everything, from visas to flight logistics, with genuine care and attention. The costs were very reasonable, but it was their empathy and support for both patient and family that made all the difference. I can’t recommend them enough.

Vietnam to London — Medical Repatriation by SkyCare.

Fantastic professional company. We couldn’t have done this without them. My friend suffered a stroke and was paralysed on the right side. Due to a technicality, his insurance wouldn’t cover repatriation, so we had to go private. If anyone is ever in the same position, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend SkyCare. They made a stressful situation feel manageable, and I’m so grateful for their calm, capable support throughout.

France to UKSki Injury Repatriation by SkyCare.

Fantastic service. I was repatriated from France after a skiing accident with multiple injuries. We contacted Craig at 4am and by 10pm I was home — ground ambulance, air ambulance, and ground ambulance again. Everything went smoothly with incredible medical care and kindness. After two miserable weeks in hospital, I finally felt safe and supported. I cannot thank SkyCare enough and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Vietnam to London — Stroke Repatriation by SkyCare.

Amazing team of people. My brother had a stroke in Vietnam and the insurance company were useless. SkyCare guided me through the process, sorted everything out, and got him safely home. The whole team were fantastic, but special thanks to the medical crew — Adam and Sarah — who flew out and did an incredible job. I can’t recommend SkyCare enough for their calm, professional help in such a difficult time.

UK to Malaysia — Long-Haul Medical Repatriation by SkyCare.

If you’re in the UK looking for a repatriation company, I couldn’t recommend SkyCare enough. They arranged medical transport for my dad from London to Kuala Lumpur — a 12-hour flight. From my first message, they responded quickly and handled all documents and approvals efficiently. Huge thanks to Craig for making everything smooth and to Nurse Nav for caring for my dad the whole way home.

Las Palmas to UK — Air Ambulance Repatriation by SkyCare.

Thank you to Craig and Ben for organising our return home from Las Palmas. My dad was extremely anxious about the process, but everything ran so smoothly at every stage. Mum is now safe in Maidstone Hospital, and she’s just happy to be somewhere she can easily communicate. The whole experience was calm, compassionate, and professional — we really appreciate everything SkyCare did to make it seamless.
