AVMIN: Your trusted global partner for emergency evacuation and medevac flights
In critical moments, AVMIN’s 24/7 charter coordination team provides a single point of contact for urgent medical transfers and emergency evacuations. Through our network of specialist aircraft operators, aeromedical providers, governments and assistance companies, AVMIN coordinates medevac flights and evacuation charters across Australia and worldwide.
Whether responding to a large-scale evacuation following a natural disaster or arranging an urgent medical transfer after an accident overseas, AVMIN sources an aircraft and support solution suited to the circumstances. The same capability applies closer to home, from coordinating an aeromedical transfer from regional Australia to arranging an emergency charter flight for an interstate hospital transfer.
We understand the urgency involved in medical evacuation and emergency response. Our team is available around the clock to begin assessing the requirements, sourcing suitable aircraft and coordinating the operational arrangements.
AVMIN can arrange access to specially configured aircraft through experienced aeromedical operators. Some cases require a dedicated air ambulance with an onboard medical team and critical-care equipment. Others may be suited to a medical charter flight for a stable patient travelling with an appropriate medical escort.
Each request is assessed individually with the relevant operator and medical provider.
From urgent bed-to-bed transfers to large-scale evacuation support, AVMIN can coordinate:
When an urgent medical transfer is required, fast and reliable coordination is essential.
AVMIN works with specialist aircraft operators and aeromedical providers to arrange medevac flights, medical charter flights and emergency evacuations, with charter coordination available 24 hours a day.
Whether the requirement involves an individual patient transfer, time-critical organ transport or a larger emergency response, our experienced team coordinates an aircraft and operational solution tailored to the circumstances.
In medical emergencies, every hour matters. AVMIN’s coordination team works around the clock, arranging aircraft positioning and clearances so a medevac flight can be underway within hours of the initial call, depending on location and aircraft availability. For time-critical cases, that response starts the moment you contact us.
AVMIN arranges medevac flights configured to each case, from ventilators and cardiac monitoring to incubators for neonatal transfers. Flight doctors, paramedics and nurses are sourced through our aeromedical partner network and matched to the patient’s condition. We coordinate the equipment, crew, ground handling and medical documentation each hospital needs before handover.
We work closely with governments, insurance companies and medical institutions worldwide to streamline every aspect of the evacuation process. From securing necessary permits to ensuring medical teams are in place upon arrival, AVMIN handles all logistics with precision and efficiency.
In disaster situations, rapid and organised evacuations are critical. AVMIN specialises in mass evacuations due to natural disasters, political unrest and other crises. We provide safe and efficient medevac flights and emergency charter flights across Australia and around the world for individuals and groups in urgent need.
From private medevac flights for individuals to emergency evacuation plans for businesses and remote workforces, AVMIN delivers tailored solutions to meet every need. Our specialised FIFO weather evacuation services ensure the safe transport of mining and offshore personnel during severe weather events, minimising risks and operational downtime.
AVMIN arranges genuine bed-to-bed medevac flights, coordinating ground ambulance transfer at both ends so the patient moves directly from the originating hospital bed to the receiving facility. Continuity of care is managed through the handover, with the receiving hospital briefed ahead of arrival.
For medevac flights crossing borders, AVMIN manages the extra layers international cases bring: overflight permits, customs and quarantine clearance, and coordination with hospitals and medical teams at the destination. Whether repatriating a patient home or transferring them to a specialist facility overseas, the logistics are handled end to end.
Critically ill infants and children need aircraft configured for their specific needs. AVMIN sources incubator-equipped configurations and matches each case with retrieval teams experienced in neonatal and paediatric care, coordinating closely with the NICU or paediatric unit at both ends of the journey.

A medevac flight is a specialised air transport service for critically ill or injured patients who need medical care and monitoring during transit, not just transport from A to B. Depending on the case, that can mean anything from a single ventilated patient on a dedicated aircraft to a multi-patient response after a natural disaster. Flights are configured with medical-grade equipment, such as ventilators, cardiac monitors or incubators, and staffed with the clinical team the patient’s condition requires, from paramedics through to intensive care doctors.
To arrange a medevac flight, call AVMIN’s 24/7 emergency response team on 1300 286 462. Having a few details ready helps us move faster including:
These terms are often used interchangeably, but there are some real differences. A medevac flight, or air ambulance, usually refers to a case involving active medical care in transit, such as a ventilated or critically ill patient needing continuous monitoring.
A medical charter flight typically suits a stable patient who needs to travel lying down or with basic medical support, such as an escort nurse, but doesn’t require intensive care equipment.
AVMIN assesses each case individually and coordinates the most appropriate aircraft, operator and clinical team based on the patient’s needs
Coverage for a medevac flight depends on your travel insurance, workers’ compensation, corporate duty-of-care policy or other insurance arrangements.
AVMIN regularly works with insurance companies and medical assistance providers worldwide to coordinate aircraft and flight logistics. If your flight is being arranged privately, our team can also discuss the options available.
AVMIN’s 24/7 charter coordination team begins assessing every request immediately. In urgent situations, suitable aircraft can often be arranged within hours, subject to aircraft and medical crew availability, airport access and any regulatory approvals required. For international flights, additional permits and clearances may affect departure times.
Yes. AVMIN coordinates international medical repatriation flights through our global network of aircraft operators and aeromedical providers. Whether returning a patient to Australia or transferring them to a specialist medical facility overseas, we coordinate the aircraft, operator, airport logistics and supporting travel arrangements to ensure a seamless journey.
