Mark your calendars now for the Welcome Home celebration of Mission 007 – Saturday, April 30, 2016.

Our veterans are scheduled to land at 6:15pm at the Syracuse Hancock International Airport. To view the water cannon salute (weather permitting) you should plan on arriving at the Airport by 5:45pm. There is FREE parking available in the Airport Employee Parking Lot (follow signs) until that lot is full. There will also be a free shuttle from the lot to the terminal if needed.

Once the plane lands, it will take about an hour for the plane to reach the gate, to deplane all the veterans and line up for the Welcome Home Ceremony. Please be patient! We know you are anxious to greet your veterans, but to allow us to line up as quickly as possible, we ask that you remain downstairs of the Main Terminal. The Parade through the Terminal will begin at 7:15 and will be followed by a brief Welcome Home Ceremony at 7:30pm.

For regular updates the day of the mission, including pictures from our veterans in Washington, DC and any potential delays, follow us on Facebook at www.Facebook.com/HonorFlightSyracuse.

See you at the Airport on April 30!
