Well, I think itīs only a misunderstanding, we have that everyday on corporate and doesnīt show up on the news, they would be collapsed. If such an emergency flight arises you may call airport responsible official on duty and explain it. I flew many medical and transplant flights during years and never had a problem, airport authorities and air traffic control are normally widely open to requests on these cases.
By the way, my congratulations to all these people who helped me, they saved many lives without knowing it, specially on organs transplant flights.
