Meghalaya's specialty hospital options are limited — most critical cardiac, pulmonology, and transplant cases ultimately go to Hyderabad. You deserve to know exactly who is flying your family member there, not a broker's best guess.
Shillong's airport (Umroi/Barapani, roughly 30 km from the city) has limited runway and connectivity. Depending on aircraft configuration and weather, some missions may route through Guwahati rather than departing directly from Umroi. We confirm the exact operating model honestly when you call — based on your specific case, not a generic claim.
Shillong's own airport at Umroi has limited connectivity, and Meghalaya's specialty hospital capacity is limited — many critical cases are first stabilized locally, then flown onward. Industry data on this region shows that close to half of critical patients here are typically referred to Hyderabad for cardiac, pulmonology, or transplant care Meghalaya's hospitals aren't equipped to treat.
Airlogic Air Ambulance flies the King Air B200 (VT-YUD) on this corridor — a younger airframe with the cabin space and range to manage this distance. Every credential is published before you pay a single rupee.
Industry data shows roughly half of critical patients from Shillong are typically referred to Hyderabad — for cardiac, pulmonology, or transplant care Meghalaya can't provide. Hyderabad's KIMS, AIG, and Yashoda hospitals handle what the local system cannot.
Umroi's runway constraints mean some missions may stage through Guwahati — we confirm the actual operating model honestly based on your case. Patients value the honesty. Ground transport from Shillong to either airport is coordinated by our team.
Full intensive-care stretcher space, room for a doctor to intervene mid-flight — important on the long Shillong–Hyderabad leg. Compare that to older C90s still operating on parts of this route. See The Aircraft →
The aircraft's registration (VT-YUD), Aerokalinga's DGCA AOC, the flight crew's hours log, and the clinical team's medical council registration numbers are all published before you commit. Not a single credential is hidden behind a phone call or a broker relationship.
Platform fees, clinical team costs, route fuel, and ground coordination — including any Shillong-to-airport leg — broken down line by line. The quote you receive at booking is the amount you pay.
