Escorting an adult or elderly person on a flight – humane, safe and professional service
Flights for seniors or the elderly can easily become a complex and tiring experience. Dealing with security checks, long waits, queues, pressure changes during the flight and the need to navigate airports – all of these create difficulty for those who are not at their peak physical or health fitness. Paramedical offers a professional and sensitive solution: an adult or elderly flight escort service, performed by qualified paramedics who are also trained as nursing assistants.
Whether it's a short domestic flight or a long trip abroad - we offer close, supportive and safe accompaniment that begins before takeoff and ends after arrival at the destination.

Why choose to be accompanied by a paramedic?
✔ Professional and qualified team
The support is provided by professional and experienced paramedics, who have basic medical knowledge, experience in treating the elderly population, and a deep understanding of nursing needs.
✔ Advance planning and customization
Before each escort, we conduct a coordination call and preliminary medical examination – this way we can ensure that the service will suit the passenger's unique needs. We adapt the type of escort to the level of mobility, medication, medical sensitivities, cognitive status, and more.
✔ Comprehensive support at every stage
At home: assistance with packing, organizing, and leaving the house.
At the airport: escort at check-in, security checkpoint, assistance with medical equipment.
During the flight: assistance with movement, eating, taking medication, emotional support and basic medical monitoring.
After landing: assistance with baggage collection, escort to the shuttle vehicle or to a waiting family member.
✔ Peace of mind for the family
Family members can know that their loved one is in good hands – with updates along the way and close support that reduces risks and worries.
