Scottsdale, Arizona - No matter where you are going to on vacation or for how long, at Jet Rescue Air Ambulance we always stress that you make sure your travel insurance covers medical treatment and emergency evacuation. When searching or buying your travel insurance, don’t always assume you are covered for everything. In general travel insurances cover lost or delayed baggage, flight delays, missed departure and flight cancellation. However, more serious matters such as accidents or illness aren`t always covered.
Active vacations..
Planning an active vacation? Take into account that if you are planning an active or extreme vacation with activities such as bungee jumping, skydiving, mountain climbing or underwater sports you have run the risk that cover for injuries as a result of these activities is excluded in the travel insurance policy.
No insurance at all..
It amazes us that literally thousands of people still go on vacation abroad without having a comprehensive travel insurance and thinking that an accident or injury would never happen to them. People do not realize that yes it can happen to you or your loved ones. Having an accident or falling ill abroad could cost thousands of Dollars, Euros or Pounds if you are not properly insured.
Just to give you an insight into the costs, domestic air medical evacuation cost averages in between 10 to 20,000 US Dollars, internationally this can exceed the 80,000 US Dollar barrier. These are substantial amounts of money. If you are not covered this can result in you or your loved ones having to sell the car, house or other valuable assets. Now do we want that? No.
In case you wish to organize a medical evacuation but have doubts about your insurance coverage..
It can happen that you wish to evacuate yourself or your loved ones as soon as possible but you have doubts about your insurance coverage. In that case Jet Rescue Air Ambulance can help you out! Our Flight Coordinators will call your insurance company on your behalf and attempt to obtain pre-authorization for a medical evacuation. In addition, Jet Rescue Air Ambulance will submit all claim forms and other required documentation. If we are able to obtain an authorization from your insurance company we will not require payment at the time of service and evacuate you or your loved ones!
Do take into account that most insurance plans require that a specific medical necessity is met. This means that a physician or doctor must certify that the transportation by air ambulance is indicated and that transportation by other means may endanger the patient. Some plans require that the transport is a life threatening emergency or that the destination is the closest appropriate facility.
Be prepared..
If you have bought a comprehensive travel insurance and you are about to go on vacation, be prepared! Ask yourself if you know what to do in case of an emergency.
Some valuable tips;
- Ask your broker or insurance company if there is a manual with standard procedures in case of emergencies such as an accident/illness. Read it, know it.
- Always have the 24h emergency phone number on you (this might be the phone number of an assistance company in case the insurance company outsourced this activity).

Jet Rescue flies through the winter season!
Scottsdale Arizona - Jet Rescue Air Ambulance is a company that provides domestic and worldwide air ambulance service, 24 hours a day and seven days a week. The company provides specialized medical teams to critically ill and injured patients anywhere in the world and has the capability to organize the most complex repatriation missions.
Many people ask themselves how an air ambulance copes with difficult weather circumstances such as we are seeing this winter. Fast moving fronts, ice fog, strong winds, snow and flat light conditions are part of the winter period. These conditions require careful planning in order to minimize their effects. For these kinds of conditions special winter operating procedures are in place. Let us have a look at both take-off and landing as this is regarded by most people as the most delicate part of flying and aircraft
Take-off
Before an air ambulance aircraft takes off, the second officer checks if there is ice on the wings and reports his findings to the air ambulance captain. For take-off it is necessary to have the wings clear of ice or anything that will adhere to the wing and cause a reduction in lift or alter the aerodynamics of the wing. In case ice was found on the wings the captain calls in the ground crew for de-icing the air ambulance.
After a call from the air ambulance captain the ground crew heads to the air ambulance and de-ices the airplane with heated de-icing fluid which consists of Ethylene or Propylene Glycol, diluted with water. This special fluid is sprayed, under high pressure, onto the air ambulance to melt the frost, ice and snow. Once the airplane is de-iced, the air ambulance is ready for take-off. The de-icing takes place about 15 minutes before take-off.
Landing
In winter conditions the runway surface can be very treacherous. Before landing advanced information about the current conditions of the runway surface is obtained by our air ambulance captain.
When landing is in process, visibility is of the upmost importance. The air ambulance co-pilots` job is to monitor the aircraft instruments. He is in charge of making sure that the control navigation system is working correctly. The air ambulance captain is in charge of monitoring the instruments until the aircraft gets near visibility minimums. If the runway lights are in sight, and the aircraft is due to snow or rain at or above visibility minimums, the air ambulance captain will disconnect the autopilot and land the air ambulance manually.
Winter conditions such as ice fog and snow can only make flying dangerous if winter operating procedures are not in place. If you choose Jet Rescue Air Ambulance as your air ambulance provider the patient is guaranteed a smooth and safe flight, no matter what season we`re in!
