Space Available travel is a great program for our Active
Duty, Guard, Reserve, Retired and their eligible family
members. Please understand, our primary mission is the
movement of cargo and space required (duty)
passengers on Department of Defense owned or
controlled aircraft. Additional considerations can affect
the number of seats available are safety, aircraft
configuration, maintenance and aircrew size. Once
mission requirements are met, available seats will be
offered to Space-A passengers awaiting transportation.
The Space-A program is a byproduct of the military
mission and is not funded in the DOD budget. Travelers
must be prepared for the possibly of having to wait
several days or even arrange alternate commercial
transportation. Lodging and off base transportation is
not always available and in some cases can be very
expensive. Travel to remote or austere locations is also
a possibility with even greater cost for alternate travel.
Please ensure that you have the funds available to cover
any unforeseen expenses. Please remember, spaceavailable travel is a privilege and AMC cannot guarantee
movement to your desired location or on any particular
schedule.
