The charity said the journeys cost about £6,000 which wasted money obtained through donations.
The Midlands Air Ambulance says its helicopters responded to two emergencies in one day which turned out to be hoaxes.
The first hoax was to an alleged assault at a commercial property in Stoke-on-Trent on Monday morning.Paramedic Sarah Foley, who provides critical pre-hospital care, was on both missions and said it was "extremely saddening". Hoax calls were thankfully quite rare, the charity said, with fewer than 10 a year, so having two in one day was "extremely rare and quite strange".
Ian Jones, clinical operations director for MAA charity, said that their daily missions were funded by generous donations from the public.
