Search the Operation Pedro Pan records
The Miami Herald has compiled a database of 13,429 people who entered The United States on the Pedro Pan flights between 1960 and 1962. Use this portal to search for yourself, your friends and your relatives.
We're working diligently to get every Pedro Pan into the database. However, for the first six months of Operation Pedro Pan, the names of the parents were recorded instead of the names of the children. These records are not yet available for search.
