More than 400 people enjoyed the evening at Signature Flight Support at Asheville Regional Airport.
During the May 9 gala, guests were given the opportunity to sponsor veterans to experience an upcoming Honor Flight trip, and $48,725 was raised to support the program.
The money will cover the cost of flights for nearly 100 veterans.
