Guardian Application

PLEASE NOTE: THE GUARDIAN POSITION IS A WORKING POSITION FOR THE ENTIRE WEEKEND DURING A FLIGHT

Honor Flight Boise (HFB) would not be successful without the generous support of our Guardians. Guardians play a significant role on every trip, ensuring that every Veteran has a safe and memorable experience.

Please note … Duties include but are not limited to: physically assisting the Veterans at the airport, during the flight, at the hotel, and at the Memorials; pushing the Veteran in a wheelchair for the entire weekend if necessary; loading wheelchairs on and off the buses at each stop; assisting with the Veteran’s luggage; assisting Veterans up and down bus stairs at each stop; always maintaining Veteran safety. Guardians must be physically able to perform these duties with Veteran safety as the Guardian’s most important priority.

The spouse/significant other of a traveling Veteran is not eligible to serve as the Veteran’s guardian.

Guardians contribute toward their own travel expenses. $950 is the current Guardian donation.

You MUST have TSA-acceptable ID to fly. See the TSA website for acceptable forms of ID required for air travel: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/identification. (REAL ID required by 05/07/2025)
