Dear Honor Flight Tallahassee Family,
As you know, we made a difficult decision to postpone our April 18, 2020 flight for the health and safety of everyone involved. Even though our flight must be rescheduled, we still want to take time on April 18 to recognize and honor our area’s veterans for their service and sacrifice to our country. Since we can’t be together in person, we’re moving the flight to Facebook for a Virtual Honor Flight!

News Update: Honor Flight 2020 Postponed
Dear Honor Flight Tallahassee Veterans and Guardians:
Honor Flight Tallahassee, together with the national Honor Flight Network, has been actively monitoring the outbreak of respiratory illness caused by a new coronavirus (COVID-19) and its impact to the Big Bend region and Washington, DC.
With the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recently issued advisory that adults over the age of 60 are particularly at risk of infection and should avoid all nonessential air travel, the Honor Flight Tallahassee Board of Directors has made the decision to postpone our April 18, 2020 flight. Guardian training scheduled for April 4, 2020, and April 11, 2020, has also been postponed.
At this time, a rescheduled flight date has not been determined. Priority for the next flight will be given to those veterans and guardians who were approved to fly on April 18, 2020. We look forward to sharing updates with the community as they are available — including news of a rescheduled flight date.
We know this is difficult information for those who have waited for an Honor Flight experience. In an abundance of caution, the national Honor Flight Network has also required that any scheduled Honor Flight trip be postponed until April 30, at a minimum.
Honor Flight Tallahassee is eager to continue flying World War II, Korean War a Vietnam War veterans to visit their memorials in Washington, DC as soon as it is safe to resume. Our local veterans are very deserving of this honor, and we take great pride in the trust placed in us to safely fulfill our mission.
We continue to accept applications for veterans to join us on the next flight. Applications for veterans, guardians and volunteers can be found on our website.
Our number one goal is to ensure the safety of our veterans, guardians and volunteers on any Honor Flight Tallahassee trip. With the health and safety of our Honor Flight Tallahassee family in mind, we will continue to monitor the guidance from health authorities in cooperation with the national Honor Flight Network.
We are sure you may have questions about this news and have enclosed a Frequently Asked Questions document with more information. If you have additional questions, please contact us via email, phone or through Facebook.
We remain grateful to the Big Bend community for your continued support.
Sincerely,
Honor Flight Tallahassee Board of Directors

Frequently Asked Questions
March 11, 2020
In response to the recent news that Honor Flight Tallahassee’s April 18, 2020 flight has been postponed, the Board of Directors has developed answers to some frequently asked questions regarding our very difficult decision to protect the health and safety of the Honor Flight Tallahassee family.
What is the current COVID-19 situation?
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is responding to an outbreak of respiratory disease caused by a novel (new) coronavirus disease (abbreviated “COVID-19”) that was first detected in China and which has now been detected in more than 100 locations internationally, including in the United States. On January 31, 2020, Health and Human Services Secretary declared a public health emergency for the United States to aid the nation’s healthcare community in responding to COVID-19.
Who is at risk?
Early information out of China, where COVID-19 first started, shows that some people are at higher risk of getting very sick from this illness. This includes:
- Older adults
- People who have serious chronic medical conditions like:
- Heart disease
- Diabetes
- Lung disease
Why has the decision been made to postpone the April 18, 2020, Tallahassee Honor Flight?
This is an unprecedented and challenging time because of the uncertainties and risks associated with COVID-19. We are particularly concerned about the susceptibility of our older veterans to infectious diseases.
Many veterans who make Honor Flight trips have serious, chronic medical conditions like heart disease, diabetes, COPD or lung disease that leave them even more vulnerable to COVID-19. In addition, many of these veterans live in community settings, such as a retirement home or assisted living facility, where the risk of spread is extremely high.
Does this only impact Honor Flight Tallahassee?
No. The Honor Flight National Network Board of Directors has been carefully monitoring the situation. With the CDC’s advisory that adults over the age of 60 are particularly at risk of infection and should avoid all non-essential air travel, the Honor Flight National Board has required the mandatory postponement of all Honor Flight trips through at least April 30, 2020.
What is the new flight date?
At this time, a rescheduled flight date has not been determined. We will share information with the community as soon as the local Board of Directors, in collaboration with the Honor Flight Network, makes decisions regarding future flights.
Will the scheduled Guardian Training happen as planned?
Guardian training scheduled for April 4, 2020, and April 11, 2020, has also been postponed.
Will I be guaranteed a seat on the next flight?
Priority for the next flight will be given to those veterans and guardians who were approved to fly on April
18, 2020. We will contact you with new date information as the Board of Directors makes decisions regarding future flights.
Is there still time to apply for the next flight?
We are always looking for veterans to join us on our next flight and continue to accept veteran applications during this postponement. Applications for veterans, guardians and volunteers can be found on our website at HonorFlightTallahassee.org.
Where can I get more information about COVID-19?
To keep Florida residents and visitors safe and aware of the status of the virus, the Florida Department of Health (DOH) is issuing regular updates as information becomes available.
Visit the Florida DOH: http://www.floridahealth.gov/
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has a dedicated website for the public to access
