This is an all-inclusive charter price for a fully equipped flying ICU using aircraft such as a **Learjet 35A**, departing from **Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, Dhaka**. | Service Component | Included | | --- | --- | | Aircraft (Learjet 35A) | ✓ Charter — Dhaka to Yangon/Mandalay | | Flight doctor + flight paramedic | ✓ Full 1.5–2 hour escort | | Transport ventilator + cardiac monitor | ✓ Full ICU-grade equipment | | Medical export clearance (Bangladesh) | ✓ Handled by our team | | Hospital admission coordination (Myanmar) | ✓ Pre-arranged before departure | | Ground ambulance both ends | ✓ Bedside-to-bedside | **Why is it less expensive than Bangkok?** The distance from Dhaka to Yangon is approximately 800 km and to Mandalay approximately 900 km — roughly half the distance to Bangkok (1,700 km). The shorter flight time (1.5–2 hours versus 3.5 hours) reduces fuel cost, crew time, and aircraft positioning costs. However, Myanmar hospitals have fewer JCI-accredited specialists and limited ICU capacity compared to Bumrungrad International Hospital or Samitivej Hospital in Bangkok. We recommend the best destination based on the patient's specific medical needs and required specialist availability. ## Which Myanmar Hospitals Do We Transfer Patients To?
