Blue Ridge Honor Flight

Blue Ridge Honor Flight started as a dream in 2005 and was originally founded as HonorAir. To date, HonorAir and the National Honor Flight programs have been responsible for flying over 170,000 WWII, Korean and Vietnam veterans to our nation's capitol to experience their memorials. The Blue Ridge Honor Flight board and volunteers plan 2-3 flights from the Asheville airport each year.

Our History

Thank You Letters

In 2012 my father, a WWII Navy Veteran, flew to Washington DC from Chicago with Honor Flight. It was one of the most memorable days of his life. I would like to thank Jeff Miller and Earl Morse who made their dream a reality for thousands of veterans. Many thanks to the thousands of volunteers who donate time to make sure our veterans are safe and well cared for on their honor flights. Please consider a donation to Blue Ridge Honor Flight.

Words can’t express my gratitude and thankfulness to BRHF. Especially the Welcome Home in Asheville Airport. Memories of the past just won’t go away, especially the bad memories. I thank BRHF for helping me cope with all the bad memories of 1970 and now focus on the positive of today. Thanks BRHF for a ‘mission well accomplished’!!!!

I think every veteran should go on this flight! I think it will help every veteran. I enjoyed the scenery and opportunity to visit our Nation’s Capitol with fellow veterans. From the time I left my house everything was fantastic and memorable! I finally felt ‘Welcomed Home’!
