THE FLYING DOCTORS SOCIETY OF AFRICA?

The Flying Doctors Society of Africa (FDSA) is a leading fundraising organisation in East Africa. It was established in 1971 to expand medical outreach in Africa. The society raises funds through the sale of membership to the Society, donations, the sale of branded items, and fundraising activities/events.

The FDSA’s free air evacuation service is covered up to a radius of 1000 km of Nairobi. Through Bondei East African Safari Tours (BEAST), you are covered during your vacation and holiday. As an expat, you can choose memberships of different lengths that fit your needs. We would also be able to help you with this.

Because of the membership, you have a medical evacuation cover in Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi. You are covered within the membership period, but only in the event of a life-threatening medical emergency.

FDSA patients are flown to Nairobi, usually to Wilson Airport, but occasionally to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. At the airport, they are met by an AMREF Flying Doctor ambulance. The ambulance will transfer the patients to the hospital of their choice. The ground ambulance is included as part of the free evacuation.
THIS SERVICE IS INCLUDED IN ALL OF OUR TOURS, TREKKING, AND OTHER PROGRAMS, THOUGH NOT SINGLE ACTIVITIES OF MAX. 1 DAY.

NOTICE: Medical services and treatment at the hospitals are not included in the cover. Medical treatments at the hospital are covered by your International travel Insurance. Notice, however, that in Tanzania and Zanzibar, your local mandatory travel insurance will cover medical treatment in Tanzania, not outside.
