Commercial Stretcher Flights from Massachusetts

For patients in Massachusetts who are too unwell to sit upright, we offer commercial stretcher flights — a more affordable alternative to a full air ambulance between Massachusetts and the UK. This service uses a modified lay-flat stretcher onboard a commercial airline, with privacy screening and medical supervision if required.

SkyCare manages all airline permissions, clinical documentation, and transfer logistics — ensuring a seamless journey from bedside pickup in Massachusetts to hospital handover in the UK.

Stretcher repatriation needs longer lead time and is only available on select carriers, but offers a cost-effective solution for patients who must remain flat during long-haul travel.

Departures are arranged from hubs such as Boston Logan International (BOS) and Worcester Regional (ORH), with additional access via Bradley International (BDL), depending on airline clearance and medical approval.

We assist patients across Massachusetts, including Boston, Cambridge, Worcester, Springfield, and Lowell.

Common Questions – Medical Repatriation Between Boston and the UK

SkyCare can often arrange air ambulance flights from Boston to the UK within 24 to 48 hours, depending on medical readiness, flight permits, and aircraft availability. We operate primarily from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Worcester Regional Airport (ORH), and Hanscom Field (BED), with the ability to support patients across Greater Boston and surrounding areas.

Each mission is carefully coordinated to ensure safety, speed, and full compliance with both U.S. and UK medical aviation regulations — including bedside-to-bedside handover and 24/7 clinical oversight.

If your loved one is hospitalised in Boston — especially far from family or support networks — it’s often best to bring them home to the UK as soon as they’re medically stable. This is particularly important after surgery, serious illness, or trauma, where continuity of care under the NHS can support long-term recovery.

Once hospital discharge is possible, repatriation planning can begin. To understand the timing and safety considerations, read our guide on flying after surgery.

If the patient is insured, the first step is to contact the insurance provider. However, many families choose to self-fund medical repatriation to avoid delays. SkyCare can often arrange a dedicated air ambulance from Boston within 24 to 48 hours.

Please note: when booking privately, full payment is required in advance. In some cases, costs can later be reclaimed from your insurer. Our team can provide supporting documentation to help with your claim.

Commercial medical escort flights are also available from Boston Logan (BOS), Worcester Regional (ORH), or Hanscom Field (BED), though these may require additional coordination for airline approval and in-flight medical equipment. Medical evacuation Boston to the UK

What Factors Influence the Cost?

The cost of an air ambulance from Boston to the UK depends on several key factors — including the patient’s medical condition, the level of in-flight care required, flight distance, and aircraft availability.

As a guide, prices for a dedicated long-haul air ambulance to London from Boston typically start from around £65,000. This base rate varies based on in-flight medical staffing (doctor, nurse, paramedic), aircraft type, and whether ground ambulance transport is needed at either end.

SkyCare operates primarily from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS), Worcester Regional Airport (ORH), and Hanscom Field (BED), ensuring rapid access for patients across the Greater Boston area.

To receive an accurate, fixed-cost quote, contact our team or request a confidential quote online.

Boston is one of the most visited U.S. cities by British nationals, and hospitalisation here can be extremely expensive. Many travel insurers act quickly to repatriate patients back to the UK for ongoing treatment.

If your loved one is receiving care at leading hospitals such as Massachusetts General Hospital, Tufts Medical Center, Brigham and Women’s Hospital, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, or Lahey Hospital & Medical Center, SkyCare can help coordinate urgent medical transport home.

We manage everything — including medical clearances, hospital discharge coordination, ambulance transfers to the airport, and a medically staffed flight to the UK.

Commercial Medical Escort from Colombia to Essex

The team were a godsend they brought my son back from a nightmare fall on holiday in Columbia. He was with the team and I flew separately home the next day. I had no worries once I met them of him going on his own with them they were so friendly and professional. Thank you to all the team in Columbia and in England arranging it, I would highly recommend this team if you unfortunately ever needed this care.

Following a very poor and frustrating experience with a medical insurance company who seemed focussed only on delaying matters we contacted SkyCare to organise medical repatriation for a family member we needed to get back to the UK. From start to finish we felt SkyCare offered the highest level of service obviously wanting the best medically for our relative but also professionally and speedily dealing with the necessary administration and formalities when coming from Iceland to the UK…

“The team at SkyCare could not have done more in supporting me getting my partner home. The transfer care was second to none and the support leading up to the transfer was excellent. David (complete with his broken leg) arrived back to a bed in an NHS hospital arranged by SkyCare. There really are not enough superlatives to describe the difference Craig, Ben, Ross etc all made. Thank you.”

“SkyCare have truly been lifesavers for us and our daughter who was taken ill overseas. They not only arranged the escorted flight home for our daughter but undertook all the hard graft of locating and liaising with the relevant UK hospital to get our daughter admitted directly on arrival in the UK. First Class Service!”

Commercial Medical Escort from Funchal to London

At a very desperate time, I was fortunate enough to find SkyCare and their wonderful team. My mother had a stroke overseas. The insurance team let us down badly so I looked at finding independent services to repatriate her back to the UK. SkyCare were able to provide a detailed and transparent price breakdown within 2 hrs . They provided a new quote within 30 min when we had to adjust an element of the repatriation. My insurance service would not provide a detailed quote…

Superb service, from first contact to a positive result of repatriating my husband to a UK hospital, the support and care was fantastic. My husband Jim had a stroke at our house in Greece, after emergency treatment he was placed on a ward, which was awful. He had lost his speech and all movement on his right hand side. It is up to relatives to look after the patient in hospital, they only provide medical care. I was so stressed, trying to care for him…

Medical Repatriation Advice and Support
I recently spoke to Craig from SkyCare when my mum was seriously injured overseas and it looked like a medical repatriation was needed. His advice and communication was superb, helping me to navigate a market which appears to be full of brokers with misleading prices and shocking reviews. Fortunately, my mum was deemed stable enough to fly home commercially, and yet Craig still continued to provide advice even though…

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.

From first contact to the final update confirming safe arrival, SkyCare’s care and coordination were second to none. They handled all COVID testing, documents, and border requirements with professionalism and warmth.

Cannot thank the team at BM Ambulance enough for getting my Dad home from Spain. Craig/Sarah/James/Emma & Danny were all absolutely amazing. It was a huge 24 hour journey and they made Mum & Dad feel comfortable and safe the entire way. I don’t think my Dad would have made it without your help. He’s still not in the best of health but at least we have him home. We definitely could not have done this without you. Thank you all involved. Amazing people offering a fantastic service. x
