Our History
Guardian Flight was founded in 1997 by Frontier Flying Service, and grew rapidly over the following three years. In 2000, Guardian Flight separated and emerged as a stand-alone, privately owned, critical care air ambulance service with its main base in Fairbanks, covering the interior of Alaska. In 2004, Guardian Flight established a satellite base in Sitka and in 2005, added an additional satellite base in Ketchikan to better serve Southeast Alaskan communities. In 2006 and 2007, Guardian Flight expanded to include bases in Dutch Harbor, and Anchorage to provide critical care air transport service to the South Central region, and the Aleutian Chain.
After a change in ownership in 2008, Guardian Flight is stronger than ever and continues the long standing tradition of providing excellence in air medical transportation to the people of Alaska.
