About Hope Air

At Hope Air we’re not an airline, we’re a lifeline.

We address the consequences of poverty and distance when accessing care. For many Canadians facing serious health issues, getting the care they need isn’t as easy as you’d expect. Vital medical appointments and treatments are often far from home. How do patients get there in a timely way? How do they afford the travel costs? These are things that those suffering from an illness shouldn’t have to worry about when they’re trying to focus on their health.

At Hope Air, we believe that all Canadians should have access to the healthcare they need, regardless of where you live or if you can’t afford to travel. Which is why we’re committed to easing the stress of getting there by providing families, from coast to coast, with free flights and accommodations. Since 1986, Hope Air has facilitated 170,000+ travel arrangements for individuals, families and children.

Hope Air bridges the distance between home and hospital, connecting Canadians to healthcare. With free flights, accommodations, meals and rides; Hope Air removes the barriers of cost and distance for Canadians who need critical medical care.

With your support, we remove the barriers of cost and distance for Canadians who need critical medical care.
