That doesn't sound right.
The heart comes to your heart hospital, you don't go to where the heart is. For U of M Hospitals you have 2 hours to get to the hospital; the heart is delivered from wherever. A donor heart is viable for ~4 hours. There is no way one can get to an airport, book a flight leaving shortly (how often is a flight leaving for your destination?), get through TSA, board, fly, disembark, drive to hospital in 2 hours.
Good friend is a scrub nurse for one of the surgeons that does this surgery, so I have heard about the process ad nauseam.
