What is Angel Flight Australia?
Established in April 2003, Angel Flight Australia is a charity that coordinates non-emergency flights to assist country people to access specialist medical treatment that would otherwise be unavailable to them because of vast distance and high travel costs.
All flights are free and assist passengers travelling to or from medical facilities almost anywhere in Australia.
Who do they help?
Anyone who is medically and financially disadvantaged, being families who have been financially devastated by medical bills due to illness, accidents or other chronic conditions.
