Flights from Italy.

You can sign up for Space A travel at NAS Sigonella Passenger Terminal in person at the Passenger Service Counter, or by following the sign-up instructions on their AFPIMS page. Many terminals also accept email sign-ups with your name, DoD ID, eligibility category, and desired destinations. Sign-ups are valid for 60 days. Visit the NAS Sigonella AFPIMS page for their current sign-up procedures and hours of operation.

NAS Sigonella Passenger Terminal publishes its 72-hour outlook on a manual cadence through the official AMC AFPIMS system. VeteranHQ pulls the published PDF every 15 minutes and surfaces new flights within minutes of publication. Gaps of 1 to 6 days between updates are normal, and reflect AMC's publishing patterns rather than a data error. The freshness indicator on this page shows when the most recent PDF was published.

At roll call, the Passenger Service Agent calls passengers by priority category, then by sign-up date within each category. Categories I through V are called before Category VI (retirees, their dependents, and 100% P&T disabled veterans). You must be present at roll call time, typically 2 to 3 hours before departure, though NAS Sigonella may have specific procedures. If you miss roll call, you lose your position for that flight.

Required documents depend on your eligibility category. At minimum, bring a current military ID or retiree ID card, or for 100% P&T disabled veterans a DoD ID with your VA award letter showing Permanent and Total. For international travel, bring a valid passport and any required visas. Retirees with dependents need dependent ID cards. Bring your Space A sign-up confirmation. Contact the terminal directly for destination-specific requirements, since some countries require special entry documentation even for military travelers.

Dependents of active duty service members can travel unaccompanied under certain conditions (command-sponsored ID, EML orders). Dependents of retirees generally may not travel unaccompanied on Space A unless the retiree is also traveling. Dependents of 100% P&T disabled veterans are not automatically eligible unless the veteran is also a military retiree. Rules vary, so confirm with the specific terminal Passenger Service Agent.

Confirmed seats. The crew has officially released these, so make roll call and you have a real shot at getting on.

A planning estimate, not a promise. These seats often disappear at roll call, so don't build a trip around a Tentative flight.

Only travelers covered by a Status of Forces Agreement can board. That's the legal status that lets U.S. military personnel be stationed in a country, so if you don't have orders there, this flight isn't for you.

The headcount the terminal takes before each flight. Be standing at the counter by this time, usually 2 to 3 hours before takeoff. Miss it and you lose your seat, even if you signed up first.
