Mission Statement:
Our mission is to provide round trip transportation and accommodations from Abraham Lincoln Capital Airport in Springfield, Illinois for any veteran in order of their service, WWII, Korean,Vietnam, etc, who wishes to visit their memorial and other memorials in Washington, D.C. This day trip is provided completely free of charge to the veteran in honor of his/her service to our country.
What Is Honor Flight?
The Honor Flight program is a nation-wide network dedicated to providing all veterans who apply a free trip to Washington, D.C. to visit memorials honoring their service and sacrifice. Springfield has established a newly formed 501 (c )3 non-profit hub for the Honor Flight Network. Our Executive Board with elected Officers governs the Land of Lincoln Honor Flight hub. We are offering memberships and utilize volunteers in order to accomplish this mission.
All expenses for this one-day trip are the sole responsibility of the Land of Lincoln Honor Flight including the flight, ground transportation, meals/snacks, beverages, and all incidentals. The trip is provided absolutely free of charge to the veterans; they cannot spend their own money. Trained volunteer guardians will provide assistance and accompany our veterans on their flight. We also give top priority on every flight to a veteran of any war who has a terminal illness.
