Travel Companions
Only qualified, licensed and experienced travel companions
Our travel companions escort a variety of airline passengers who cannot travel alone because of medical or non-medical reasons. But even when the request is of a non-medical nature, Jet Companion does not follow the “rent-a-daughter” approach. We take responsibility for the care of your loved one, and it starts with the guarantee that you’ll always get a professional health care provider.
Every travel companion on our team is a licensed nurse, an advanced care paramedic or a doctor with additional training in the challenges of the flight environment. That’s why our travel companions are often referred to as medical travel companions. Our flight escorts are deployed from our base in Edmonton, Canada to anywhere in the world to pick up the client at bedside, at the door or at the airport.
Why do people book a travel companion?
The reason could be medical travel, for example a patient traveling internationally to a hospital for specialized treatment or to rehab facility. Some families book our services to help their loved one with dementia navigate the airport, or they hire a travel companion to accompany a child who does not qualify as an unaccompanied minor with the airlines.
Elderly passengers or terminally-ill travelers request personalized care, as they plan to travel to an important life event like a family reunion, a funeral or a last visit to a special place or person.
