Nexus Flight Operations Services has signed a deal to become the first facilitator in the Middle East of the health and travel safety services provided by Singapore-based MedAire.

MedAire has a large network of medical and safety professionals around the world available to assist any crew in an emergency at any time. This is the first time it has made a strategic partnership for its services offered in the Middle East and North African regions, say the companies.

"With such exponential development in the aviation industries of the regions we cover, health and safety rules and services become more and more prevalent, making MedAire's services a necessity, not a luxury," says Nexus president and chief executive Abdullah Al-Sayed.
