Sky Rescue Insurance

[submittedviaemail]

Hello,
I had some questions about your medical evacuation procedures. My husband and I are current customers but we are working at a mission base that is looking at the importance of having evacuation insurance for the staff. Our phones are currently not working so I am sending an email, sorry.
Our mission is based on a tiny island in the Caribbean. We are on the island of Mayreau. It is part of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
We do not have an airport. Is one needed?
Are you able to access most areas?
We have a big enough area of cleared land to land a helicopter but it has a downward grade and is not smooth. Is that something you can work with or would we need to get a boat to another island to have you land?
We can get a speed boat to the island with an airport but the airport closes at nighttime. Is this a problem?
Also, if there is a life or death emergency, how fast can you get to us?
Thank you so much. Again, I am sorry we couldn't do this over the phone.
