All volunteer guardians must complete an application to be considered for a flight. Guardians are required to pay their own flight expenses, which is $500 per person. Please read the frequently asked questions. Complete and submit the application form below or print and mail the completed form to Freedom Honor Flight, P.O. Box 505, La Crosse, Wisconsin, 54602-0505.

Guardians play a significant role on every Freedom Honor Flight, ensuring that every veteran has a safe and memorable experience. Duties include, but not limited to, physically assisting the veterans at the airport, during the flight and at the memorials. Guardians must be between 18 and 70 years of age. Guardians are also responsible for their own expenses (airline fare, etc.). For further information, please contact us at (608) 784-1015 or www.freedomhonorflight.org/contact.
