🏔 International Mountain Day | Why terrain changes timing
In a country of islands and mountains, air ambulance flights in the Philippines don’t just depend on “when the patient is ready.”
They’re also shaped by:
✅ Runway altitude – higher airfields mean thinner air, longer takeoff distances, and sometimes weight limits.
✅ Runway length – some airports are simply too short for certain aircraft, routes, or weights.
✅ Terrain & routes – mountains require higher minimum altitudes and sometimes longer routes around terrain, not straight lines.
That’s why the “best” time to fly is the one where safety, terrain, and the patient’s needs line up.
Some timing is airport-set. We’ll brief you on options.
