The COVID-19 pandemic has caused preventative measures such as international flight and port closures to be put into place by local governments in an effort to prevent the spread of the virus. Due to these restrictions in place, an American family with a positive COVID-19 traveler faced difficulties returning home. Facing multiple international border crossings in order to make their way home to the United States, there was not much optimism that they could get home any time soon.

McLean, VA – March 23, 2020 – Global Guardian, the preeminent provider of international security services for corporate and family travelers, utilized their Emergency Evacuation services to quickly and safely evacuate 144 Americans out of Roatan, Honduras, on Sunday, March 22, 2020. The request from private citizens came as Americans have found themselves stranded as a result of heightened travel restrictions and border closures due to COVID-19.

The international security firm Global Guardian has renewed its partnership with USA Nordic for the next two years.

Global Guardian successfully conducted an urgent emergency medical response and coordinated the safe evacuation of a senior executive traveling in Madrid, Spain. Upon notification of the client emergency, Global Guardian activated its US-based physician team to begin coordinating treatment with local medical staff and deployed a regionally-located, highly-trained medical advisor to assist on-site.
