Hatzolah Air is a humble organization that recognizes the incredible mission it fills and is blessed to be able to help people in need.
Over the next few years Hatzolah Air intends to enter dedicated aircraft into service in strategic countries and cities worldwide.

Hatzolah Air plans to continue expanding their fleet, with aircraft stationed around the world, and more helicopters available for emergency medivac in Israel.
Facilitating urgent and emergent medical transport and access to high quality care are but a few of the missions Hatzolah Air offers. Always at no charge (for approved missions).
Hatzolah Air has a network of benevolent aircraft owners who allow their aircraft to be used for emergency medical air transport. Without them, we'd be unable to fulfil our mission to provide air transport where and when we're needed.
All flight requests are carefully vetted before a mission is launched. Hatzolah Air volunteers coordinate these special flights with the aircraft owners, pilots, flight crews and our medical directors and matches the plane with the mission based on geographic location, travel group, size and availability.
Occasionally, an urgent or emergent flight request reaches the Hatzolah Air dispatch that requires an immediate flight by a plane based in a specific airport.
Hatzolah Air has arrangements with various aircraft owners, who have offered their planes for mission use.
Hatzolah Air graciously acknowledges the magnitude of generosity of its owner partners.
May they be blessed with endless success for their incredible contributions to the less fortunate.
