Plan your trip / Travel and stay
Flights, rooms, food and local help in Chennai
A good stay lets you focus on recovery. We arrange the practical things so that you and your family are not working them out in a new city.
What we arrange
Airport pickup
A driver meets you at Chennai airport and takes you to your hotel or the hospital. The same service takes you back for your flight.
Accommodation
Hotels and serviced apartments close to the hospital, chosen for step-free access, comfortable rooms and a kitchen where possible.
Local transport
Cars with a driver for hospital visits and follow-up appointments.
Interpreters
Interpreters on request for appointments, subject to availability.
Meals
Dietary needs such as halal, vegetarian or low salt shared with the hospital kitchen and your accommodation.
Family support
Rooms for attendants and guidance on local shops, pharmacies and places of worship.
Planning your dates
- Arrive at least a day before your first appointment
- Add spare days after your planned discharge
- Do not book a non-changeable return flight until your doctor agrees a date
- Check the weather for your travel month and pack accordingly
- Keep medicines and key records in hand luggage
Money
Hospitals usually bill in Indian rupees. Ask your bank how to pay a foreign hospital, and ask the hospital which payment methods it accepts. Keep every receipt and invoice, because your insurer or tax office may ask for them.
