What Is a Medevac or Medivac Flight?
A medevac flight — also written medivac — is a form of air medical transport for patients who cannot travel safely by commercial means. These private aircraft are equipped for clinical care and used for both emergencies and non-urgent medical repatriation.
SkyCare arranges medevac and repatriation for stroke recovery, trauma patients, post-operative cases, long COVID evacuations, and more — always with full medical oversight.

European Medevac, Medivac & Air Ambulance FAQs
A medevac (or medivac) is a form of air medical evacuation for patients who are too unwell to travel commercially. In Europe, SkyCare provides rapid medevac flights using medically equipped aircraft staffed by NHS-level clinicians. We handle bedside-to-bedside transfers from hospitals, clinics, or remote locations — ensuring patients return home safely with continuous medical oversight.
Yes. Medevac typically refers to urgent or emergency air transport during a medical crisis. Medical repatriation can be either urgent or planned — often involving stable patients who still need clinical care en route. SkyCare provides both services across Europe, including full coordination of air ambulance flights, ground transfers, and medical clearances.
SkyCare can organise European medical evacuations within hours, depending on aircraft availability and the patient’s condition. In urgent cases, we aim to launch a medevac flight on the same day. For non-critical patients, repatriation flights are usually scheduled within 24–48 hours.
In many cases, yes. Some travel insurance and expat health plans include cover for medical evacuation or air ambulance transport. SkyCare can work directly with insurers to confirm coverage, or provide a fixed-price quote for private self-pay flights if needed.
All SkyCare flights are staffed by licensed professionals — such as doctors, critical care nurses, or paramedics — depending on the patient’s condition. This is not a commercial escort service; it is a regulated air medical transport with real clinical care. We ensure patients receive continuous monitoring and support throughout the journey.
Fast response. Medical-grade care. Europe-wide coverage.
