Mercy Flights
Samaritan Aviation’s Mercy Flights serve the southwestern region of the United States. These non-emergency flights give patients who cannot otherwise travel via car or commercial flight carrier the opportunity to visit medical specialists. We also have the privilege of taking people home to loved ones and friends when they are discharged from hospital care.
Often our Mercy Flight recipients become life-long friends and supporters!
