Alexandria, VA,  November 25, 2013 — The Air Charter Safety Foundation (ACSF) is pleased to announce that Transplant Transportation Services, Inc (TTSI) is the newest company to join the ACSF.  Along with 105 other companies, Transplant Transportation now supports the ACSF’s vision to enable on-demand air charter providers and fractional program managers to achieve the highest levels of safety in the aviation industry.

“Our mission at Transplant Transportation is to provide our hospitals, transport centers and organ procurement organizations with operational excellence and relentless levels of service and safety,” said Transplant Transportation President Scott Pritchard. “We recognize the important, life-saving work the organ teams provide and strive to deliver them to their destination safe, prompt and in comfort.”

Pritchard noted, “When we schedule a flight and select an aircraft, safety is our priority. Joining ACSF will help us do both.”

Transplant Transportation is a leader in logistics, managing systems, processes and technology. With more than five years’ experience, TTSI works with a select network of world-class operators to provide complete transportation services for organ transplant teams, organs, and support staff.  With the emphasis on thoroughly vetting each charter flight, they have narrowed the list of their safety approved network down substantially from the many charter operators available in the marketplace today.

“We are pleased to welcome Transplant Transportation Services to the foundation,” said ACSF President Bryan Burns. “Becoming a member of ACSF is a testament to their commitment to providing the safest aircraft and flight crews for their clients.”
