What is the maximum ischemia time respected for organ transport by cargo aircraft?

Our organ transport by cargo aircraft strictly respects maximum ischemia times: 4 to 6 hours for a heart, 6 to 8 hours for lungs, 12 to 24 hours for a liver, and 24 to 36 hours for kidneys. Each flight plan is optimized to guarantee arrival well within these critical windows, including ground transfer times to the transplant center.

Organs are transported in certified medical-grade containers maintaining a stable temperature of +4°C. Each container features dual preservation fluid systems, continuous temperature monitoring, and shock-absorbing materials. The entire chain complies with European Directive 2010/53/EU on organ quality and safety standards.
