Operation Dreamlift whisked approximately 90 children from Trenton-Mercer Airport in New Jersey to the Magic Kingdom and back in a single, whirlwind day. The adventure began early, with children arriving around 5:30 AM to dance and interact with some of their favorite characters before boarding a Miami Air International airplane bound for Orlando, Florida.

Upon arrival in Florida, the children enjoyed five hours of fun in the parks, experiencing thrilling rides and meeting beloved Disney characters. As the day concluded, they boarded the plane once more for their return journey to Trenton, NJ, all within the same day.

A heartfelt thank you to the All-Volunteer Mercer County Chapter for their dedication and fundraising efforts that made Operation Dreamlift possible. We also extend our gratitude to the volunteers, families, friends, and local businesses who contributed to this unforgettable day. Lastly, a special thank you to Miami Air International for their generous support and for ensuring our Dreamers’ safe travel to and from Orlando!
