Discounted/Free Airfare?

Post by S. Millet »

Has anyone who has traveled to an out-of-state doctor been able to get discounted or free airfare? I read about this at another BPI website and was curious if this was possible and how to go about asking for it. Thanks!

We used Miracle flights for three of our plane trips. They are very caring and compassionate people.

We used Northwest for one of our trips. They have a program that covered round trip airfare for my son and 1 parent. I believe the program is called kid care. If you look at Dr. Nath's website he has a link that lists many programs that can help with the airfare. That's where I found the Northwest program. We also we supported by our local shriners hospitalers. They paid for my son's entire trip when we returned for cast removal after surgery and a week of therapy. If you know anybody that's a shriner, or you can look them up on the web. Good luck, there's lots of help out there.
