OUR MISSION
We are honored to support all World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam War veterans aged 65 and older, whether they served overseas or stateside.
Our mission is unwavering: NO VETERAN LEFT BEHIND.
We are dedicated to providing this meaningful trip to DC.​
​
Give a Veteran the Trip of a Lifetime
For many Veterans, a trip to Washington, D.C. to visit the memorials built in their honor is something they could not make happen on their own—whether due to financial, physical, or logistical challenges. That’s where Honor Flight Tri-State steps in. Our mission is simple: to make this once-in-a-lifetime journey possible for as many Veterans as we can.
The Honor Flight experience is completely free of charge for all participating Veterans. If a Veteran does not have a family member or friend to accompany them, we assign a trained and enthusiastic guardian to assist throughout the day.
Veterans over the age of 65—whether they served overseas or stateside—are eligible to apply.
