Where to Find Space-A Military Flight Schedules (An excerpt from an email from Stephanie at Poppin’ Smoke stephanie@poppinsmoke.com
In my last update, I explained how military passenger terminals are migrating away from Facebook and posting their flight schedules on the AMC website (here’s a link to that e-mail in case you missed it).
In this article, you can find more detail on how to navigate the AMC website to find individual passenger terminal pages and their respective flight schedules.
The article also explains how to read the flight schedules and what the various abbreviations mean. Space-A is still restricted at the moment, but you can brush up now so that you’re ready to go when it reopens.
Click here to get the details on the flight schedules!
I’m optimistic that Space-A will resume for leisure travelers, and I will continue to keep you updated on the latest news!
