Yeah Indycar was able to fly his wife and daughters out but TS arranged his jet to get JW's brother and maybe some others there.
The article I read suggested that this is not the first time TS has flown people around in emergencies but due to the high profile nature of this issue a lot of drivers thanked him publicly and brought it to the media's attention.
Not to get OT entirely but I still feel bad for TS, I think he's a good guy haunted by the Ward accident. Sucks that Ward's family is suing him too, I honestly don't believe TS did anything wrong.
I suppose it's only slightly off topic, since whenever this happens we look back at all the racers whose lives have been lost at the track. Every time it happens it feels as though it's an aggregate event, we're not just mourning JW, we're mourning Jules, Dan Wheldon, Ayrton, Roland Ratzenberger, Dale Sr, Scott Kalitta, etc etc etc.
