Agreed.

I think one or two times many years ago I saw a case with the organs being specially carried on to the plane in a specially marked container. I do recall the plane being delayed a few minutes but the arrival was pretty much on time.

The recipient is normally close to where the transplant will occur.

You just IDB'd a person on their way to see their dying father who just had a stroke and who was planning to attends his sister's funeral the next morning, and the mother just had a heart attack at the hospital, and the IDB passenger's brother who has only one kidney needs the IDB passenger's kidney because that stress at the hospital put him into renal failure. Maybe Dr. Dao had to assist on some organ donor cases.
