Nurse-Accompanied Flights on Commercial

Safe, compassionate medical travel — anywhere in the world.

White Dove Medical Transport arranges nurse-accompanied flights for patients who can safely travel on commercial airlines but still require professional medical supervision and assistance. Our experienced registered nurses escort patients from bedside to bedside, ensuring a smooth, dignified, and stress-free journey.

A nurse-accompanied flight allows patients to travel on regular commercial aircraft with a qualified flight nurse providing continuous care throughout the trip. It is a more affordable option than transfer in a private air ambulance.


This option is ideal for patients who:

  • Are medically stable but need monitoring or medication during the flight

  • Require assistance with mobility or oxygen

  • Need help with check-in, boarding, customs, and transfers

  • Are traveling for medical treatment, rehabilitation, or returning home after hospitalization

Our nurses carry approved medical equipment (oxygen concentrators, medications, vital-sign monitors, etc.) and coordinate with airlines and airport medical teams to ensure compliance with all aviation and health regulations.
