Because aircraft availability can change at a moment's notice, NORA has dedicated flight coordinators responsible for continually monitoring aircraft and flight crew availability. Keeping up-to-date on the status of all aircrafts and pilots in our network means that NORA will respond quickly to your request. We routinely place soft and hard holds on planes to support our client's needs, saving valuable aircraft dispatch time.
NORA is constantly growing our vast network of both dedicated aircraft and our on-demand network to meet the ever-changing needs of our partners is transplantation

Organ-Only Flights
Over the last decade NORA has pioneered the service of organ-only flights for both importing and exporting solid organs to other donor service areas.
​
Organ-only flights are a cost-effective option created in response to organ allocation policy among designated service areas. This is a viable option for OPOs experiencing increased imports into their DSA's and mitigating cost risks. Organ-only flights can mitigate cost by shortening repositioning distance and time.
NORA boasts TSA certification as an Indirect Air Carrier (IAC) and operates with a workforce exceeding 900 employees, each holding STA certification. This certification enables us to seamlessly transport organs, tissues, and blood specimens on all major airlines throughout the United States.
With the relationships NORA has solidified with the TSA, spanning well over a decade, we are able to book our staff onboard the aircraft inside the cabin and above the wing. This On Board Courier service (OBC) allows us to mitigate the stressors caused by commercial cargo operations, such as early closures, irregular hours, and lost shipments, ensuring care, custody, and control of the life-changing cargo trusted to our care.
