Our mission is simple – to fly as many World War veterans to their memorial in Washington DC as we can – as fast as we can, at no cost to them !

Honor Flight Tri State is full swing for the 2010 flying season. We have several flights planned for this summer and we are now accepting applications on-line for any veterans that would like to take an all expense paid trip to Washington to see their memorial. World War ll Veterans are taking top priority but if you are a Korean War veteran, please apply and we will put you on the list.

Apply on line on this website. Just click on applications. This is the most direct way to apply and your name will go onto the waiting list. We will call you when your name comes to the top of the list. Most veterans applying now will be flying this summer or fall.

Statistics show that World War ll Veterans are dying at a rate of 1200 a day. For many of the surviving veterans, a trip to Washington to see their memorial is not financially or physically possible without the aid that Honor Flight Tri-State can provide. The trip is absolutely free to all qualified veterans and all guardians pay their own way. Honor Flight wants to fulfill the dreams of as many veterans as we can providing free flights to veterans and ease the load for their caregivers by providing willing and able volunteers to escort the veterans on their trip.

A flight includes : A t-shirt, Honor Flight name badge souvenir, 3 meals, tour buses and airfare to and from Washington DC in one day !

Remember to fill out an application if you are interested in an Honor Flight .

From the staff of Honor Flight Tri-State and the many volunteers and especially the Veterans – thank you for helping to make a member of the Greatest Generation so happy with this free flight to their memorial.
