BRITANNIA AIRWAYS CHOOSES AEROMEDIC INNOVATIONS FOR TOTAL MANAGEMENT OF ON-BOARD MEDICAL KITS

14th June 2001

Britannia Airways, the UK's leading charter airline, has contracted with Aeromedic Innovations for its on-board Medical Kit total management.

The airline's medical kit requirements are diverse, reflecting the fact that its operations range from intensive European Mediterranean resort charters, to long-distance flights to destinations such as Thailand, Brazil and the West Indies where more comprehensive medical kits are required.

Under the three-year contract, Aeromedic Innovations will service, maintain and manage the three types of on-board medical kit operated by Britannia.In concert with Britannia, Aeromedic Innovations will periodically review the contents of the kits so that not only do they comply with all regulations at the time but represent the latest in medical protocols and the very best recommendations of Good Samaritan healthcare professionals. Britannia's medical kits will mean the airline's passengers will have some of the most up-to-date equipment for medical care in the air.

Uniquely, Aeromedic Innovations is the only company in the world to provide a total service package similar to that agreed with Britannia Airways. By taking on responsibility for the whole programme, including, if necessary, kits manufactured by other companies, a single source of supply is created. his reduces administration, frees up airline management time and reduces overall cost.
