Burlington, NC, United States / Storyteller / May 08, 2026 /
SkySouth Aviation, a Burlington, North Carolina-based private jet charter and FBO operator, today announced the expansion of its critical medical air transport services across the Southeastern United States. The company, which has been in continuous operation since 2003, has now surpassed 1,000 organ transports and continues to serve as a trusted partner for hospital networks, organ procurement organizations, and transplant surgery teams requiring rapid, reliable private aviation support.
SkySouth operates a fleet of Citation CJ1 and Citation CJ3 light jets from its base at Burlington-Alamance Regional Airport (KBUY) in Burlington, NC. Both aircraft are available for dispatch 24 hours a day, seven days a week, enabling the company to respond to time-sensitive medical missions at a moment's notice. The CJ3, recently refitted with a new interior in January 2026, is the aircraft of choice for heart transplant teams due to its increased cabin space, 480 mph cruising speed, and 1,500 nautical mile range.
"When transplant surgeons and medical coordinators call us, minutes matter," said Kevin Mock, founder of SkySouth Aviation. "We have spent more than two decades building the systems, the team, and the reputation that hospitals trust when lives are on the line. This expansion reflects our commitment to being available whenever and wherever a medical network needs us across the Southeast."
SkySouth's medical transport capabilities include organ and tissue transport, heart transplant team flights, time-sensitive laboratory specimen transport, and emergency patient transfer coordination. The company's proven safety record and rapid dispatch responsiveness have made it a preferred provider among medical brokers and hospital procurement coordinators throughout North Carolina and surrounding states.
The company's Burlington location places it within convenient range of major medical centers in Greensboro, Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill, providing a strategic hub for regional medical aviation support. SkySouth is also equipped to serve destinations throughout the Continental United States, Canada, Bermuda, and the Caribbean.
Medical teams and hospital coordinators requiring immediate dispatch can reach SkySouth Aviation's 24/7 charter line at (336) 639-2151. Additional information about medical transport services is available at https://skysouth.com/private-jet-medical-transport-services-burlington/.
