Due to the ongoing national health emergency related to the COVID-19 virus, Land of Lincoln Honor Flight of Springfield has announced that the May 12 flight has been postponed.

The action was taken in consideration of the Centers for Disease Control's advisory that citizens must avoid all non-essential air travel and undertake social distancing. Honor Flight organizers say the decision "is in the best interest of our veterans."

All veterans who were scheduled on the May 12 flight have been notified and will be offered the opportunity to participate on the September 22 Honor Flight.
