Air ambulance flights from Manipur operate from Bir Tikendrajit International Airport in Imphal (formerly Tulihal; IATA: IMF, ICAO: VEIM), about 7 km south of the city centre, with a runway of about 2,746 metres. Our medical team moves the patient from the hospital to the aircraft by ALS ground ambulance.

Yes. We offer bedside-to-bedside transfers. Our doctor and paramedic take over at the hospital bedside in Imphal, for example at RIMS, JNIMS or Shija Hospitals, and stay with the patient until handover at the receiving hospital. Hospitals are named for reference only, not as partnership claims.

Yes. Patients from districts such as Churachandpur, Thoubal, Bishnupur, Ukhrul and Senapati are brought to Imphal airport by ground ambulance, and then flown to the destination city.

Yes. Every flight has a critical care doctor and a trained flight paramedic, with a ventilator, cardiac monitor, defibrillator and emergency medicines on board.

Keep ready the patient’s ID proof (Aadhaar or passport), ID proof of the family member travelling, the referral or discharge summary from the treating doctor, the latest reports, and bed confirmation from the receiving hospital. We provide the consent form.

One attendant may travel with the patient if cabin space, weight and clinical safety allow. It is not automatic, and other family members usually travel by commercial flight. We confirm this in your written quote.

A commercial stretcher is usually cheaper, but it is only suitable for stable patients, depends on airline schedules, and has limited medical support. Critical and ventilator patients need an air ambulance with a doctor and ICU equipment.

Imphal airport has fixed operating hours. A flight outside those hours needs an airport watch-hour extension, which is charged extra and must be arranged in advance. Our flight desk will tell you the fastest safe option.

Some health insurance policies cover air ambulance transfers, usually up to a set limit. Check your policy or ask your insurer or TPA, and ask us for the invoice and flight details your insurer needs.

Usually a leased King Air B200, registration VT-YUD, flown under AeroKalinga’s DGCA Air Operator Certificate. If a partner King Air C90 or Pilatus PC-12 is used instead, your written quote names the aircraft, its registration and its operator before you pay.

No. The aircraft is not based in Imphal. We plan its positioning for each mission, and any positioning cost is shown in your written quote.

GST is nil on qualifying emergency patient evacuation, as stated on your invoice. Your written quote shows the tax treatment for your flight.

No. Airlogic runs an operations and coordination desk. You speak with us directly, we plan the flight, and we disclose the aircraft, operator and medical team before you pay.

Yes. We arrange return-to-home flights to Imphal from Delhi, Kolkata, Hyderabad, Chennai, Bengaluru and other cities, with a doctor and paramedic on board and a ground ambulance to the patient’s home or hospital.

No. The patient must be assessed fit to fly for that journey. Some patients are safer staying where they are or moving by another plan, and we will tell you honestly.

Yes. A receiving bed must be confirmed before the flight. Your treating team usually arranges it, and we coordinate the rest of the plan around it.

For bed-to-bed transfers, ALS ground ambulances at both ends appear as line items on your written quote. If you only want airport-to-airport, tell us and the quote will show exactly what is included.

So you can see the aircraft, medical team, ground ambulances, airport charges and any extras separately, instead of one unclear number. Itemizing is how we earn your trust.

No. A scheduled passenger flight is not an air ambulance. Critically ill patients need a medical flight with a clinical team and an ICU-configured cabin. Stable patients may qualify for an airline stretcher, which the airline must approve.

Escort space is limited because the medical load comes first. One attendant may travel if space, weight and clinical safety allow. Grandparents and children usually cannot all fly on the aircraft.

Yes. Often the first step is a safe road transfer into Imphal, then the flight. Tell us the patient’s true current location, because the plan differs for a district hospital and an Imphal bedside.

It can. Monsoon rain, low cloud and winter fog can delay flights, and bad weather at a hub or destination city can cause delays even when Imphal is clear. We communicate every delay and never launch unsafely.
