We also set standards in transporting patients: The Lufthansa Patient Transportation Compartment (PTC) combines state-of-the-art technology, skilled specialists and efficient processes with the comfort and safety of a hospital intensive care unit - and that at an altitude of 32,000 feet.
There are many good reasons to choose the PTC:
