Frequently Asked Questions About Air Ambulance Flights To and From Delaware

Which airports in Delaware do you use?
We coordinate flights through major and regional airports, including:
Wilmington Airport (ILG) – Wilmington/New Castle
We can also utilize nearby airports in surrounding states when they offer better access based on patient needs or timing.
Do you serve rural or hard-to-reach areas of Delaware?
Yes. Companions are often permitted to travel with the patient, depending on the aircraft, weight limits, and the patient’s medical requirements. Our coordination team will confirm seating and provide preparation guidelines.
