Scott AFB Passenger Terminal is only manned during Space-Required and Space-Available missions.
Due to local mission requirements, our terminal only opens the day of projected roll calls that are indicated on the 72-hour schedule located in the left-hand column (for Space-A) or pre-coordinated Space-R movements. Mission allowing, the 72-hour forecast will be updated every duty day (Mon-Fri) No Later Than (NLT) 1630L.
Space-Required Passengers
Space-Required Passengers (Duty Passengers) on travel orders are to check-in at the Passenger Service Counter. The counter opens for check-in 2 hrs prior to departure. Duty passengers must be in line NLT 1 hr 30 mins prior to scheduled departure. Those passengers who arrive after the NLT time will be re-directed to Customer Service for further re-booking information or as PCS orders instruct.
Space Available Passengers
At this time, Roll Calls are conducted at the Passenger Service Counter 2 hours and (30) mins prior to departure. It is highly encouraged that passengers arrive prior to roll call time to ensure all passengers are marked "Present" for their flight.

Space Available Reminders
Space Available seats are often limited, therefore, passenger planning and flexibility are key to Space Available travel. Please be advised that Active Duty members MUST be on leave status to sign up for Space-Available flights.
There is no guarantee of transportation and reservations will not be accepted or made for any space-available traveler. The DoD is not obligated to continue an individual's travel or return the individual to the point of origin or any other point. Travelers should have sufficient personal funds to pay for commercial transportation, lodging, and other expenses if space-available transportation is not available. All associated expenses are the responsibility of the traveler. (Per DODI 4515.13, Section 4, Paragraph 4.1.a.)
For children under the age of ten years, without ID cards, passengers may use passports, or the child’s DoD ID number which can be retrieved from MilConnect website: https://milconnect-pki.dmdc.osd.mil/milconnect/. If the passenger ID card does not show a DoD ID number, the PSA must solicit it from the passenger. The DoD ID number may be retrieved from the MilConnect website. (Per AFI24-605v2, Chapter 2, Paragraph 2.25.3.)
