Central Missouri Honor Flight Operations Update
Effective September 15, 2025, Central Missouri Honor Flight has permanently suspended operations. We will no longer be accepting applications or donations.
Over the past 16 years, we have proudly completed 71 flights, transporting 5,495 veterans from World War II, Korea, and Vietnam to Washington, D.C. As veteran applications have slowed dramatically, it has become increasingly difficult to maintain the high standards we set for every mission.
We extend our deepest gratitude to the Central Missouri community for your unwavering support through financial contributions and in-kind donations. Without you, our flights would never have taken off—you truly have been the “wind beneath our wings.”
We also wish to recognize the hundreds of volunteers in Central Missouri, St. Louis, and Washington, D.C. who dedicated their time and hearts to this mission. Special thanks go to those working tirelessly behind the scenes on phone calls, social media, IT operations, veteran notifications, supply logistics, flight planning, and public speaking. Your commitment made this mission possible.
Veterans who still wish to participate in an Honor Flight are encouraged to contact other Honor Flight hubs serving Missouri. Their contact information is listed below, along with the national Honor Flight office for those seeking opportunities in neighboring states.
On behalf of our entire organization, it has been an honor and a privilege to serve our community and the humble, proud veterans who have risked their lives to preserve our freedoms and way of life.
May God continue to bless America and our veterans.
