How much does an air ambulance from Kolkata to Hyderabad cost?

A chartered air ambulance from Kolkata to Hyderabad costs about Rs 10 to 13 lakh, all-inclusive (doctor on board, bed-to-bed transfer, ground ambulances at both ends, no GST). A stretcher on a commercial flight costs about Rs 3.5 to 4.5 lakh if the patient is stable enough to fly. The final quote depends on the aircraft and the level of care. Send the medical summary and you get a written quote in about 10 minutes, with no deposit to see it.

How quickly can a patient fly from Kolkata to Hyderabad?

Urgent cases can depart the same day. The aeromedical doctor still confirms the patient is fit to fly for the plan before the aircraft moves.

Can you fly a ventilated or ICU patient on this route?

Yes. The aircraft is configured as a transport ICU with a ventilator, monitor, infusion pumps and oxygen for the full flight, and the crew is briefed on the specific case, including ECMO or neonatal set-ups where needed.

Is the ground ambulance at both ends included?

Yes. The transfer is bed to bed – a ground ambulance in Kolkata from the hospital to the aircraft, and a second in Hyderabad from the aircraft to the receiving hospital. Both are in the quote.

Do I have to arrange the Hyderabad hospital myself?

You can, and many families arrive with a referral already made. If not, the coordinator helps line up a receiving unit in Hyderabad and manages the handover so the patient is admitted, not left waiting.

Is GST added on top of the quote?

No. There is no GST on ambulance services, and the Kolkata to Hyderabad quote is all-inclusive – the doctor on board, the bed-to-bed transfer and the ground ambulances at both ends are already in the figure you get in writing.

Air ambulance from Kolkata to Hyderabad

Why this transfer goes by air

Kolkata to Hyderabad is a long move across eastern and southern India – more than a day by road, which no ICU patient should face. By air, the patient stays on ICU-grade support in one continuous, monitored transfer. Hyderabad’s super-speciality hospitals take referrals from across eastern India for specialist treatment, and a planned flight lets the Kolkata team and the receiving team coordinate the handover.

What we move on this route

Ventilated and ICU patients in an aircraft set up as a flying ICU; patients referred to Hyderabad for transplant, cardiac or neuro care; trauma and post-surgical cases; ECMO and other complex support where the case calls for it; and neonatal or paediatric transfers with a transport incubator and the right team. If the patient is stable and fit to fly, a stretcher on a scheduled flight is sometimes the better, cheaper answer – the aeromedical doctor decides.

Bed to bed, not tarmac to tarmac

A ground ambulance takes the patient from the ward in Kolkata, through the city, to the aircraft; a second is waiting in Hyderabad for the run to the receiving hospital. Both legs are in one plan and one quote, and one coordinator owns the case from the first call to the Hyderabad admission.

RED is not a desk that books a plane and leaves the medicine to you. The doctor who assesses the patient, the crew, the equipment on board and the ambulances in Kolkata and Hyderabad are arranged as one clinical transfer.
