Veteran Application | Hudson Valley Honor Flight

Hudson Valley Honor Flight honors American veterans for your sacrifices and achievements by taking you to Washington, D.C. to see YOUR memorial at no cost. At this time, priority is given to WWII veterans and terminally ill veterans from all wars. For Honor Flight Network to achieve this goal, guardians fly with veterans on every flight providing assistance and helping veterans have a safe, memorable and rewarding experience. For what you and your comrades have given to us, please consider this a small token of appreciation on behalf of Hudson Valley Honor Flight. Effective May 7, 2025 a REAL ID will be required to fly within the United States. LEARN MORE
