Tom’s return flight to Rochester is scheduled for Wednesday, February 4th at 4:45pm on USAir #4565, weather permitting.

It would be great if many of us could welcome him home at the airport. You should probably check flight times if you plan to go to the airport.

Mission 76 (58 vets)
April 15-16
Mission 77 (58 vets)

Mission 78 (59 vets)

Unfortunately veterans cannot choose what flight they will travel on due to medical and logistic issues associated with the flight process. We also encourage veterans from the Syracuse and Buffalo area's to visit and register with their local Honor Flight hubs before registering with Rochester Honor Flight.
