The company has developed a comprehensive checklist for guidance. The checklist supports Clients through every step of the planning process, covering ground-to-air logistics, medical and mobility considerations, in-flight comfort, and more.

The checklist includes thoughtful tips such as:

• Request pre-boarding comfort set-up: Confirm cabin temperature preferences, extra blankets and pillows, or preferred seating arrangements before arrival.
• Customize in-flight dining: Plan for light snacks, hydration, and any dietary preferences to ensure your loved one’s comfort and health during the journey.
• Confirm ground transportation to the aircraft and plan for mobility aids: Magellan Jets can help arrange for specialized ground transportation, such as non-emergency medical transport, and direct tarmac access to minimize physical strain. The company can also coordinate lift or carry-on support for wheelchair users and ensure mobility devices like walkers or aisle chairs are properly stored and accessible.
• Schedule rest breaks: Build in extra time for transfers, boarding, and deplaning to avoid rushed departures and reduce stress.

Recognizing the unique challenges that elderly passengers often face with commercial travel, private aviation offers an accommodative and comfortable alternative that prioritizes safety, accessibility, and peace of mind.

For many families, the complexities of navigating crowded commercial airports, long security lines, and inflexible flight schedules make it difficult to travel with relatives who have mobility concerns or health needs. By managing all logistics, from specialized ground transport to direct tarmac access, Magellan Jets aims to provide a smooth journey that allows multiple generations to come together and seamlessly travel to their destinations.

The checklist and details on this initiative can be found on the Magellan Jets website.
