Tyrol Air Ambulance

Tyrol Air Ambulance has provided international patient transports since 1976. The company operates its own fleet of ambulance jets from Austria. It serves patients worldwide on short, medium, and long routes. Each mission aims to move patients safely and quickly to the right medical facility.

Every flight carries a doctor and a qualified nurse. The medical team cares for patients from pickup until safe handover at the destination. The company works around the clock through a global network. An interdisciplinary team finds structured solutions for each emergency.

The fleet includes a Cessna 550B and a Gulfstream G100. Both aircraft carry modern medical equipment for intensive care. The Cessna holds one patient and one companion and flies up to 2150 kilometers. The Gulfstream holds two patients and one companion and flies up to 4500 kilometers. Both aircraft need minimum landing distances of 1150 meters and 1350 meters.

The company performs ambulance flights between hospitals and repatriations from abroad. It transports babies in incubators and children with specialized medical teams. It moves infectious patients in COVID compliant isolation chambers and disinfects aircraft after each flight. It provides ECMO transports for patients who need external lung support. It also flies organs for transplant centers and can carry organ preservation systems.

Tyrol Air Ambulance arranges hospital beds at the destination and ground transport at both ends. Its medical assistance services include case management, fit to fly checks, travel medicine advice, telemedicine, and interpreter services. Medical escorts accompany patients on scheduled flights. The company also offers cost containment for medical bills in expensive countries.

Technical assistance covers roadside help, replacement cars, unplanned overnight stays, and vehicle return services. The company holds an EASA certified maintenance operation. Technicians receive ongoing training to keep the fleet ready. Medical equipment comes from Air Ambulance Technology, an Austrian firm that Tyrol Air Ambulance co founded. The equipment includes ventilators, monitors, defibrillators, and a Cardiohelp ECMO device.
