When a patient in Palma needs urgent medical transport to Los Angeles, Air Ambulance Global coordinates safe, medically supervised air transfer between the two cities. We're an independent coordination service — we match each case to vetted, accredited operators rather than operating aircraft ourselves.
- Palma is the Balearic-Islands capital; Los Angeles is the largest West-Coast metro.
- The US has leading specialist centers but among the world's highest medical costs; the uninsured often seek repatriation.
- Transfers depart Palma de Mallorca and arrive at Los Angeles International, with ground ambulance to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center or your chosen facility.
- Air ambulance, commercial medical escort and bed-to-bed options are all available.
Medical repatriation from Palma to Los Angeles
American patients taken ill in Palma often choose to return to Los Angeles for continued care close to family. Spain has good public and private hospitals; non-EU travelers often arrange private transport home. We arrange clinical clearance, the aircraft, flight permits and ground transfers end to end.
Bed-to-bed care, Palma to Los Angeles
Our bed-to-bed service coordinates every step from the discharging bed in Palma — often at Hospital Universitari Son Espases or a local facility — through to the receiving bed in Los Angeles, including ground ambulances at both airports and a medical escort sized to the patient's condition.
How competitive bidding lowers your cost from Palma
We don't quote one operator's price — we put your Palma–Los Angeles transfer out to the whole network. Operators near Palma (PMI), and any with empty-leg repositioning flights on this route, compete for the job, pushing the price down. For families paying out of pocket, this is the difference that matters most.
What it costs
There's no single fixed price — it depends on transport type, distance and aircraft, urgency, the patient's condition and accompanying passengers. We provide a clear, no-obligation written quote and can liaise with insurers.
