No one likes to think about getting hurt or injured while they are away from home, but the reality is that it can happen. If you get injured or fall ill while on vacation in Mexico, you may want to get back to the United States as fast as possible. Not only is it easier to recuperate in familiar surroundings, but the medical care in certain parts of rural Mexico can be lacking, so you may need to leave as soon as you are stable to get the best medical care back home.
Access to reliable transportation from one medical facility to another in can be challenging, especially when those facilities are located in different countries. Road conditions in Mexico can vary and transporting a sick patient in a vehicle can waste valuable time. Hiring an air ambulance in Mexico is one way to ensure you or your loved one stays healthy and receives the best possible medical care during the trip. Staying stable and comfortable as you travel requires expert care from qualified professionals and an airplane fitted with the right medical equipment. AirCARE1 flies from Mexico to multiple popular destinations in the United States and abroad. Our fleet of Lear aircraft allows our team to take care of patients suffering from a variety of ailments, including bariatric issues, cardiac problems and recovery from injury. We even have a neonatal team ready to assist with babies who need medical care while travelling.
If you have a family member or close friend who has fallen ill in Mexico, and you want to rush to their side, AirCARE1 can be the perfect solution. Our service can bring you to visit them and transport you both in comfort back to the United States.

With state of the art medical equipment in each of our fleet of Learjet aircraft, we provide the same level of care as any hospital. Our staff is just as well qualified as the nursing staff working in hospital wards, and trained to handle any emergency that can arise. Some of the medical equipment we have on board each aircraft includes:
All of our aircraft are outfitted with medical equipment as well as comfortable seating areas for family members of the patient. With only Learjets in our fleet, we deliver a much quieter and more comfortable ride to any destination throughout Canada, the United States, Mexico, the Caribbean, Latin America and South America. Jets are able to fly faster and at a higher altitude than commercial aircraft and other kinds of planes, so you can count on fast transport to your destination.

Mexico is one of the most developed countries in Latin America but has also recently become one of the most dangerous countries in the region due to violence surrounding drug cartels. While the threat of violence is very real, Mexico remains a popular destination for travelers who tour the safer areas of Mexico City and tourist destinations such as the tropical beaches and Mayan ruins. The vast jungles in the south, coastal beaches on the Caribbean, and much more of the country can be safely enjoyed if you travel carefully.
Mexico contains the largest Spanish speaking population in the world and has created an identity for itself as a country that blends Spanish Colonial and Indigenous lifestyles into a new and defined Mexican culture. The country uses the Mexican Peso which is equivalent to about 1/13th of a dollar and has fairly developed transportation, economic, and health systems to service the country. The safest way to enter the country is to fly in and bypass the dangerous Border States; renting a car is the safest form of local transportation but is also more expensive than options such as taxis or buses. Theft is common so always be on the lookout for pickpockets and scams. Additionally, while many Americans view the Mexican police force as corrupt, most officers are honest and offering a bribe to a police officer can be a bad idea. Make sure to read the travel warnings on the US Embassy website before traveling to Mexico so you can better understand the risks of visiting the country and the precautions needed. Also make sure to carry the contact information of the Embassy with you and register with their STEP program at step.state.gov in case you require the assistance of the Embassy in an emergency. As usual, it is wise to obtain travelers insurance as well by visiting www.ustia.org to protect you from unforeseen costs.
