Our family is forever grateful for Miracle Flights assistance. Our son was born with bilateral clubfoot and required numerous trips across the country for the best treatment and subsequent surgery. We applied for Miracle Flights, as we struggled to pay out of pocket for our 6th round trip flight, for our son's medical treatment. The application process was easy and our flights were booked quickly. SO thankful for such a great company. I couldn't recommend them more!
Miracle Flights made it possible for me to fly out to Kansas for service dog training. I will be forever grateful to Miracle Flights and its caring staff.
I cannot express enough gratitude to Miracle Flights or their coordinator, Becky. In a time when everything is stressful, finances are extremely tight, and worry is inevitable, Miracle Flights provided our family with such a blessing!
The staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. They made the application and booking process painless and smooth. They want above and beyond with the care package of masks and luggage tags, and even sent a card after our trip. We feel very loved and blessed to be supported by Miracle Flights. We cannot recommend their service and professionalism enough. They are great!
We are so thankful for Miracle Flights! They are very helpful and make medical trips much less stressful!
We were really surprised and worried when our son's specialist announced that they were moving to Florida. We weren't sure how we were going to continue our son's care with him if we needed to fly out so often. Financially it just wasn't going to work and we knew that we just couldn't take him back to any other local specialist.
Miracle Flights' crew was very friendly and helpful. When we applied they answered all of our questions and they were so helpful. They have been a blessing for us and so many other families. We are very grateful for all that they do!
Miracle Flights is a wonderful organization that recently helped our family with getting our son across the country to begin medical treatments for his life-threatening food allergies. Everyone we’ve talked to with the organization is so nice and so helpful. We will forever remember what Miracle Flights has done to help our son!
Miracle Flights helped my son get to and from Saint Louis, MO from Florida to see the best orthopedic surgeon in the country for clubfoot... my son’s feet were improperly corrected and made complex at home, the new doctor completely corrected him and continues to follow Donovan’s progress. They also covered trips to see other specialists in the quest for getting the best care for my son’s mystery issues he was struggling with. Every time we called for a flight it was like talking to family, I am very grateful for their service to many families.
I never knew a non-profit organization like Miracle Flights existed. Thankfully, our children have always been pretty healthy. But when our son (age 8) was given an opportunity to seek treatment for life-threatening food allergies over 1,000 miles from home, we were pointed in the direction of Miracle Flights. We have flown once with them, and may have needs in the future. Their staff have been so kind, helpful, and even joyful in their efforts to help us when we thought the costs of travel might make treatment impossible. We are so very thankful for Miracle Flights!!
Where would we be without MIracle Flights? The answer is simple: we would be in our local hospital in Chattanoog, TN, with inadequate healthcare. Miracle Flights has gone above and beyond for my family more than once. I actually have two daughters who have benefited from this amazing organization. In 2012, my older daughter needed to have a major operation that only the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN was daring enough to tackle. Thanks to Miracle Flights, we were able to travel mutliple times to Minnesota to receive the unheard of treatment in Tennessee. Fast forward to 2018, my younger daughter was treated at every facility and even in patient at more than one hopsital in the state of Tennessee. We were told that "nothing is wrong with her other than she is an attention seeker." Being a mom who has been through one medical anamoly, I knew to trust my instincts. Miracle Flights stepped up for my family again, but flying my second daughter to Cincinnati Children's Hospital more times than I can for multiple evaluations, surgeries and lengthy hospitalizations. Thanks to my motherly instincts and Miracle Flights, she is now the first child at Cincinnati Children's Hospital with a Gastric Stimulator which acts much like a pacemaker. We still have follow-up care in Cincinnati, and I am confident Miracle Flights will get us there! On a fun side note: becuase my daugher has flown so often, she is now working toward earning her on private pilot's license and plans to become a professional pilot after high school graduation in the spring of 2021.
Over a year ago, we were told that we had to make the decision to either remove my son's right eye or fly him from Kentucky To Arizona to pursue a more aggressive treatment of his Bilateral Retinoblastoma. Thanks to Miracle Flights, we have been able to make this trip every month without having the financial burden that such frequent flights would cause us. We know that our son could still loose his right eye to cancer but because of Miracle Flights he has access to the best team of doctors for his cancer which increases the chance of preserving his vision.
Thank you Miracle Flights and everyone who donates to this great charity. We used Miracle Flights to get our child to Seattle to seek treatment for her cancer. Once we got all the documentation from the correct Doctors (this part can be tricky getting letters back in a timely manner), we were able to get the flights booked. Debra worked extra hard to make sure we got what we needed as we were closing in on our deadlines. Thank you.
Miracle flights helped my daughter get on the flight she needed from New York to consult with the only doctor in the US who specializes in her autoimmune disease . The entire process was easy and the lady setting up the flights for us was so sweet ! Thank you for the bottom of our hearts !
I absolutely loved my experience with Miracle flights! Everyone was so nice and everything was set up fast. Without Miracle flights, my son wouldn’t have been able to go to his appointment in another state. The airline(Alaska) was also so kind and helpful. My son got to chat with the pilots and take a wonderful photo. The experience was absolutely wonderful the whole way through!
We are so incredibly grateful. Miracle Flights has been such a blessing for us. Living in Louisiana and needing to fly our daughter to Florida for treatment was such an incredible burden, and had it not been for miracle Flights, I’m not sure we would have been able to go. Everything was timely and organized also. The responded right away with our request. All we had to do was verify all of our information. It took such a load off of our shoulders!
We're all checked out & heading to Cleveland Airport. Flight's at 5:45, we have a 1hr Layover in Chicago & will Land at Salt lake city Airport at 10:10pm. I Want to thank #MIRACLEFLIGHTS & #Blacklane Limousines For being so amazing & helping our family to fly us out to Cleveland for Mycandra. BlackLane was so very amazing they there when we landed & got us to our hotel safe & cared for. David from them was so sweet when he picked us up when we landed in Cleveland. Mohammad was so very helpful getting all our bags in & even asked the hotel guy to be gentle with our bags. I know when we come back for surgery they will be right there taking care of everything again..
I also want to thank #Southwestairlines for being so amazing. The flight attendants went above and beyond helping us. Mickey was a flight attendant for the day & had so much fun when we flew in. @CynthiaBrooks-Kolze was the best one by far. She was so loving & kind. For that I'll be forever greatful....
We met so many amazingly beautiful people during our stay at #HolidayInn. Our favorite person was this amazing young lady who was a valet, Mickey and her became little besties. I'm so happy to be coming home. I miss Mike & Dallie so much... I am especially greatful to my family for taking care of the older 2 while we took care of Mickey. With all my heart thank You...
I had an amazing experience with Miracle Flights! I needed to go cross country for medical testing and could not have gone without the help of this organization. They were so kind in a very stressful and scary time. I will forever be grateful for how easy they made this part of my otherwise difficult journey.
We were blessed to receive a flight from our home in Michigan to NYC to see two specialists for our son. We are so grateful for the help we received from Miracle Flights. Thank you so much for your help and assistance!
Thanks to Miracle Flights I have been able to travel out of state for the last 3 years to receive treatment for stage IV breast cancer. Jessica, Debra, Rebecca and all the wonderful people at Miracle Flights are very kind and thoughtful. They have truly become my family. For the last few years, my tumor has been stable. However, as of my last scan, the results showed that my tumor has gotten smaller. This would not have been possible without God, my immediate family, my Miracle Flights family and my CTCA family.

Miracle Flights is truly a life savior. I would not be able to travel out of state for treatment for stage 4 Breast Cancer every 20 days if it wasn’t for Miracle Flights. The staff is Extremely helpful and kind. Thanks to Miracle Flights I’m able to enjoy life with my family without the burden of trying you figure out how to get to and from treatment. God Bless Miracle Flights
My son, Bowen, needed to see a doctor in St. Louis. We flew from Florida because of miracle flights! The application was quick and easy. Debra was fantastic to work with and answered all of my questions! This is an amazing nonprofit! Thank you for making it possible for my little guy to get the help he needed!
Miracle Flights was able to get us and our 6 week old to St. Louis for care for her clubfoot. After 3 surgeons here in Houston deformed her foot even worse than she was born with, we sought Dr. Dobbs in MO. Thankfully, we only drove up twice, and the other 3 times, Miracle Flights blessed us with flights to and from, saving us money we could put towards her medical care, and bills that needed to paid even though we missed work. Thank you Miracle Flights!
They helped my child access a much needed surgery to improve her feet for the rest of her life. The process was easy and prompt.
Both flights were nonstop, which was very helpful as she was in 2 casts and required assistance. I will recommend this nonprofit to anyone in need of medical travel assistance.
Thank you so much for giving my son access (through Miracle flights) to the BEST surgeon to help him recover! We are forever grateful! This company was nothing but helpful and supportive since day 1 and as soon as it was time to book the flights, they were professional and extremely accommodating and helpful every step of the way. Thank you to everyone at Miracle Flights for making our son's future brighter by making his neurosurgeon accessible and helping us not to worry about flight expenses. You are a true blessing to our family!
Miracle flights was amazing! I am very grateful for their help to get my daughter to the hospital that specializes in her care. Everyone was kind and polite in assisting us along the process. The ground transportation was extremely beneficial as well!
We are so very thankful for Miracle Flights! After seeking medical care for my son locally for 3 years, we decided he needed more advanced help to progress. The best of the best doctor happens to be several states from us, but we knew we had to do it. Thanks to Miracle Flights, we've been able to take my son to get the care he needs without the financial burden of flights! We can't thank Miracle Flights enough!!
This organization Miracle Flights was a life saver for our family in 2019. We were hit with unplanned medical travel from Texas to Boston in both July and August to seek 2nd opinions which led to life changing surgery for our child who can only eat 1 food at the age of 3 years old. Since returning home from treatment we have made huge strides in his diet, Miracle Flights was instrumental in scheduling, changing dates, bumping up flights, and stayed in constant communication with us as needed throughout the process, front to back. Their team is friendly, compassionate, and really helped relieve the financial burden and stress that comes with medical travel. So thankful to have Miracle Flights on Team Sutton!
Great charity to work with. They were easy to get a hold of. Purchased our tickets quickly and set everything up for us. All we had to do was arrive at the airport! So thankful for Miracle Flights!
Everyone at miracle flights is beyond helpful and so kind. They have helped me fly to Colorado from Alaska for my surgeries. I’m so grateful for them!
No one wants to find themselves in the position of having to find a way to make medical care an option when it is states away. But thanks to Miracle Flights, our 5 year old son was able to make it to his appointments for an upcoming brain surgery, that otherwise would have not been possible.
Miracle Flights did an outstanding job facilitating our trip from MT to OH to pick up my sons service dog. The application process was easy and we heard back about being accepted within a few days. Unbeknownst to the scheduler, our seats were not booked together. I called Miracle Flights right away and they had the issue resolved the same day. I highly recommend any family that is considering or finding themselves in a situation of need to contact them.
Miracle Flights staff has been there to help our family for over 18 years. We could not have had the best medical care possible for my 2 children without their help. I believe with all my heart that this nonprofit is truly here to help. I am forever grateful to the staff and donors. Thank you.

I am the mother of 4 children. Two of my 4 childen were born disabled. Miracle Flights came through for me 14 years ago when my oldest disabled daughter needed brain surgery in Michigan and I live in Las Vegas. They were willing to fly us as much as we needed to go at no charge. This was truly a gift to our family and our daughter.
Well 10 years ago our second daughter was born. She was born with an orthopedic condtion that requires a lot of casting and surgeries. Unfortunately, the specialists for her condition are not local. Jessica has had 10 surgeries in her 10 years. All of her surgeries require casts and numerous follow-up visits. Miracle Flights for Kids has flown us from Las Vegas to Seattle, Washington over 35 times. They have always been there for us. Without their help, we would not have been able to see the surgeons that have helped my daughter get where she is today. She is a very happy little girl that attends normal classes. She can walk and run thanks to the doctors and miracle flights generosity. I will forever be grateful for what they have done for Jessica and my family.
Review from Guidestar
Miracle Flights made it possible for us to get my son to the specialist that he needed to see to develop a treatment plan. He was diagnosed with a rare neuro-immune disease and only a few people in the United States know how best to treat it. We are grateful for everything that Miracle Flights has done for our family! My son is now one step closer to living a normal life!
I’m a single mother to a 3 year old who just turned 4 on St Patrick’s Day. Diagnosed with Williams Syndrome (WS) at age 1, my son had a difficult debut in life, health wise. His syndrome comes with physical and cognitive developmental delays that necessitate a clinical evaluation and suggestions from experts in patients with WS. One of the best WS clinics that most parents with WS children have recommended is the Boston Children’s Hospital Williams Syndrome Clinic.
I have always wanted to take my son there, but all the expenses related to our travel, our housing and food, were above our income, until I heard about Miracle Flights through the Williams Syndrome Association website. I decided to give them a call, and they were quick to guide me in assembling my application file and... our trip was booked. I’m particularly grateful for this opportunity because this clinical evaluation gave my son a chance to have his heart evaluated for Supra valvular aortic stenosis and pulmonary stenosis. The clinical evaluations also are going to help with coming up with definite and individually written IEP goals. The clinic is a lifelong follow up and I’m grateful that if needed, Miracle Flights will give my son the chance to continue his clinical evaluations.
I couldn’t be more happier. Thank you Miracle Flights.
We are so thankful as a parent of a teen with medical condition that needs to be treated far from home, is a blessing to have foundations like Miracle flights who help parents and patients to have transportation to hospitals. Thank you so much Miracle Flights
Mircle flights flew my son and I from Virginia to San Deigo so that he could have the surgery that he needed. From the time I contacted them, till the day we left, they helped in every way possible. A special thanks to Jessica for all of her help.And thank you Mircle Flights, you are a blessing to many.
Miracle Flights is a blessing. We have to travel 800 miles one way to see our sons BMT doctors every other month. Winter time make the trip even longer and sometimes it's unsafe as we travel from Northern MT to Denver, CO. I was told about this program from a friend at the last minute but was blessed by this program with a flight for my son and I, even after some minor paperwork issues. It was such a relief. Thanks so much Miracle Flights!
Miracle Flights is helping us receive a cure for our sons life altering medical diagnosis. We were told that a cure was not available. After lots of research, we found Miller's Children's Hospital and Dr. Randhawa. We found hope for a cure but still needed to find a way to travel across the country every 5 to 8 weeks for over a year to receive it. Miracle Flights is our answered prayer! Without them and Dr. Randhawa our son wouldn't be able to attend Kindergarten, or school in general, go to birthday parties, summer camps or college. Now he will be free to live a normal healthy life. My husband and I have three young boys and are teachers in the public school system. With medical bills and the cost of missing work so much, paying for so many flights isn't an option. Miracle Flights is our cure for distance.
Thank you Miracle Flights for the bottom of our hearts! You are truly an amazing charity that deserves to be supported!
From the moment I stepped into the airport i felt like royalty. they assisted me and my caregiver right away and got us to th front of the line so i didnt have to wait long. i have crohns disease and with frequent bathroom trips i didnt have to worry about losing my place in line. at each airport they always had a wheelchair waiting for me with smiles on their faces. the paperwork needed to be filled out was very detailed and needed to b exact. however i realize they needed to be precise. at firt my dr. office was not sure what they were doing but soon got the hang of filling out the forms. miracle flights helped me several times going to the mayo clinic in rochester minnesota. things went well. i may need to go back again. but im not worried about the transportation because MIRACLEFLIGHTS has my back! thanks again!
Wonderful organization we wouldn’t have been able to see a needed specialist without this organization! Such a blessing!
Miracle Flights has been a blessing to our family. Their professionalism and ability to meet the needs we have greatly reduce our stress as a family. They have provided many flights for our daughter to be treated by specialists over 1,000 miles from our home.
Our family is very thankful for Miracle Flights! Evan has a rare disease that the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland is studying! We had the opportunity to fly from MN to Maryland to see this great team that is passionate about helping us to get better treatment and possibly a cure someday for our son. Currently Evan suffers from pain everyday and is usually very fatigued. His systemic juvenial idiopathic arthritis can attack any of his tissues, organs or joints at anytime. He uses biologics, chemo and more just to try to keep his disease at bay. Thanks to Miracle Flights we now have an addition to #EvansArmy care team! I almost cried when they told me that they will follow Evan and help us to get him what he needs to live a better quality of life. SJIA has been an incredibly dangerous and frightening struggle because this disease is so misunderstood. It is potentially terminal and a thief of childhood. We will be going back to NIH at some point. I am eternally grateful for Miracle Flights to have opened this door for us.

My son was diagnosed with Dystonia in 2014. We have been to numerous doctors and were so lucky to have found John's Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. We live in Montana and so getting to Baltimore has been a challenge. We were so very lucky to have found Miracle Flights, the many trips we have done back and forth would have been next to impossible if it wasn't for the help of Miracle Flights they truly are angels. We can't thank those who donate there time and money to help these children get the medical needs they so desperately need. My son has been through so much in the past 2 years with going through Deep Brain Surgery(DBS) and all the follow ups he is such an amazing young man. He always has a positive attitude. Miracle Flights has been there to help and has taken a lot of the financial stress off of us. They are truly a blessing!!❤❤
My daughter has an undiagnosed medical condition. Thanks to Miracle Flights we were able to Fly to Maryland and have her evaluated by the Doctors at the National Institute of Health. It would have been so difficult to drive her there from Florida. We will be forever grateful for this opportunity.
My son has been undergoing extensive medical care for over 4 years, which now has us needing to fly to another state for his medication. Miracle Flights has come alongside of our family to provide much needed support to make this possible. They are an amazing charity and have been such a blessing to us.
We want to thank Miracles Flights, for their great support for my daughter Adriana to provide us the flight Tikets for their treatment of Leukemia, in such difficult times to have people like you is very helpful, it is my prayer that God continues to use them to bless to other families in need because travel is very expensive and even more so with the pain that one carries due to the illness of our daughter, we love you, thank you for all your work and dedication God reward and bless you, many hugs even if we do not know them we already have them in our hearts!

Wonderful staff, very friendly, and compassionate. It made traveling feel so stress free and the process was a breeze. So thankful for Miracle Flights!
Miracle flights flew my husband, myself and our baby to the specialty hospital where she needed a major reconstruction surgery. We can't thank Miracle Flights enough for making this surgery possible. I also appreciate that they have kindly offered to take us back for any follow-ups that she should need. That may make the difference to being able to get follow-up care with a specialist that she needs for her complicated case.
If it wasnt for miracle flights i wouldnt be able to get my son to the doctors he needs to see out of state because i am a single mother with 2 kids and just trying to have the extra money is really hard and stressfull but with the help of them its a load of stress taken a way.
Our family recently found out that our son suffers from a very rare type of tumor. After various medical consults it was determined that the best medical care for his condition would be at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Ohio where they have 20 years experience treating this very rare condition with excellent results. Miracle flights has enabled both my husband and I to accompany our son without worrying about how we would pay for three tickets to Ohio from California every 3 months. Because of Miracle Flights we can focus on the best treatment for our son instead of how to come up with the funds to get to Ohio. It has also allowed my husband and I to be together to support our son during each surgery which would have been very difficult if paying out of pocket. We are very grateful for the generosity of strangers in our lives.
Miracle flight, thank you for being Angels on earth, always willing to help and change lifes. My son had stevens johnson sydrome at the age of 5. He is 16 now and we have been facing lot of medical issues since then. Eyes and lungs have been the main problem Miracle flights has helped us to reach the right treatments for him, we have to travel several times a year for treatment and thanks to Miracle Flights we have been able to do so. Thank you miracle flights for changing lifes.

Miracle Flights was awesome. They helped arrange multiple flights for our family to be able to take our daughter out of state to get the best possible medical treatment that she could receive. We would not have been able to afford the extensive amount of travel we needed without Miracle Flights helping us. Everyone we worked with was friendly and went out of their way to help us. When we arrived to the airport everything went smoothly each time (3 times using Miracle Flights). They made something very stressful seem quite easy and we are very thankful for their help.
We appreciate the time and many efforts you all put into helping others. Miracle flights has helped us make it easier to get our son to and from the best care. Thank you!
I am a cancer patient who has to travel from Western Montana to Seattle Washington every three weeks for therapy. I am a single parent with an elderly parent to care for as well. I have been making this journey on a regular basis since February of 2017. After thinking that all my cancer was gone, in November of 2017 a scan found that I had recurring metastatic cancer that had spread to my chest. I was given the option of immuno therapy to help my body find the cancer cells and help heal myself. There really were no other options. I have been unable to work a regular job for several months now. All savings are depleted and I had begun to wonder if I would be able to continue my healing journey.
Then I found out about Miracle Flights. They have helped me to keep going by providing travel assistance. This has taken so much pressure off that I am able to plan for future trips without having so much stress. They are pleasant and professional as well as kind and compassionate.
I recently had another scan. The therapy is working. I will have to continue for a while to see what the next scan shows. I am so grateful for the help that they have provided for me. There aren't enough words to explain just what this help has meant to me.
All I can say is, THANK YOU MIRACLE FLIGHTS!!!!!!
Miracle Flights specialists are very efficient and helpful. Wonderful customer service! I don't know if we could've had the same great medical care if we hadn't received free flights.
Miracle Flights helped us get our son, Luke, to The Children’s Hospital of Colorado for treatment he needed for his disease, Eosinophilic Esophagitis. There are no specialists for this disease in our town and our son needs to be seen 2-3 times a year. The expenses of these trips can take a toll! We are thankful that Miracle Flights lightened the load of the trip and gave us one less thing to worry about.
Miracle flights is Amazing! I don’t know how my kids would be able to see there doctor out of state without there help. Their service is great, always friendly and helpful.
As a single mother, who lives in a rural area and have battled a rare cancer and had two recurrences is the last few years. I do not know what I would have done without the kindness and generosity of Miracle Flights. I don’t think that I would be here to tell of their generosity without their help! I am so thankful.
