We are thrilled to share some exciting news, Angel Flight NE has been selected as a 2026/2027 Southwest Airlines Medical Flight Network partner!

For 30 years, Angel Flight NE has worked to ensure that distance is never a barrier between a patient and the medical care they need. Our new partnership with Southwest Airlines gives us another important resource to help patients and their caregivers travel to specialized medical treatment, always at no cost to the families we serve.

Through its Medical Flight Network, Southwest Airlines provides donated round-trip flights to nonprofit hospitals and medical transportation organizations, helping patients and caregivers reach specialized medical care during some of the most critical moments in their health journeys. Southwest has awarded nearly $5.2 million in travel to 83 hospitals and medical transportation organizations, the largest group of partners in the program’s history.

For Angel Flight NE, this partnership means something very simple: more opportunities to say “yes” when a patient needs our help.

We are already seeing this partnership in action! The stories below are just a few examples of how Southwest Airlines is helping Angel Flight NE patients and families reach the care they need , with kindness and compassion along the way.
