MUSCAT: Al Hind Tours and Travels launched the first air-ambulance charter services from Oman.

An exclusive air-ambulance charter service was organised for a patient in Oman who was airlifted for emergency medical treatment in India on Tuesday, the company officials said. 

Speaking to The Arabian Stories, Reena Abdulrahman, Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Al Hind Tours and Travels said: “In order to ensure not only quick medical assistance but also quick and safe travel, we offer charters to various destinations in the world,” said Reena.

“Early this week we organised an air-ambulance charter service for an Omani patient who wanted to undergo an emergency treatment in Ahmbedad in India. As the patient was on ventilator, it was difficult for him to travel in a commercial aircraft and hence we arranged a charter for him. The patient arrived in Ahmedabad safely and is under treatment now. At Al Hind, we make sure that our passengers get the best comfort and care,” Reena added.
