Kristina

Kristina has been courageously battling breast cancer and is undergoing treatment at the renowned Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Throughout her journey, Kristina has flown with Patient AirLift Services (PALS) six times, which has provided her crucial access to world-class cancer care. Her strength and determination continue to inspire those around her, as she navigates her treatment with resilience and hope, staying connected to the medical support she needs.

Let's get you to the care you need for free

The Patient AirLift Services’ network of volunteer pilots provide free regional flights to Cancer Treatment facilities and receive no compensation, using their own or rented aircraft. No fees of any kind are charged for these services. We don’t provide ground transportation.

Generally, the individuals who turn to PALS for air transportation are receiving diagnosis, medical treatment or follow-up for acute or chronic healthcare conditions and cannot afford commercial or charter flights.
