Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[Maria Lima]

Thanks for all the information from everyone.  Yes, my husband is retired 
military flag officer and he is the one with the Azorean heritage.  

There were no flights available when we were out on the East coast but thanks 
to all of you, we now have information to plan a trip.  I will keep looking at 
the Facebook pages for the different locations so as to get an idea of how 
often and where to fly from. 

Thanks so much for all your good input.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[Marie Shantz]

Took flights from BWI to Terceira. Usually late in the day in Saturday.   Need 
a passport. The military side is now run by Portuguese Military.  You cannot 
leave the base till your passport is stamped!!! On Monday. There is lodging on 
base.  Place to eat as well and exchange money. Need a ride to the other side 
tho my husband and I have walked there. - the civilian airport to catch flights 
to other islands. People in lodging always helped us secure our plane tickets 
since we do not speak Portuguese. I would go to Sao Miguel to Vila Franca where 
grandmother was born. Once flew to Madeira via Terceira to Ponta Delgada Azores 
to Faial Madeira to grandfathers birth place

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[bsei2816]

I have travelled Space-A many times but not since 1999.  I have flown into 
Lajes from Charleston Air Force Base (AFB), SC, McGuire AFB, NJ, Dover AFB, 
Baltimore/Washington airport (BWI), and Philadelphia IAP.  As Rick said, to 
do it you must be active duty or retired military or their accompanying 
family members.  There was a nominal fee of about $10 on a military 
aircraft or $15 on a military-contracted commercial aircraft.  This is very 
cheap but risky.  If there are no flights or seats available one could get 
stuck somewhere so always make sure to have funds for commercial tickets if 
needed.  I do believe the current scheduled military passenger service to 
Lajes Air Base departs McGuire AFB, NJ on flights that originate at BWI.  
The site that Rick provided a link for has links to all of the major 
military passenger terminals that you might find some schedule 
information.

I had not heard of civilians taking military flights either that is why I

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[Richard Francis Pimentel]

One of the benefits of being retired from the military is that you and your 
dependents can travel Space-A. In other words if there is still empty seats 
after the active duty members are boarded the they will fill the aircraft with 
retirees. Civilians/non retirees are not eligible.

[Richard Francis Pimentel]

I have traveled stand-by in the past but not to the Acores. I know you are 
required to have a ID from the military and in the case of traveling overseas 
you need a passport. You can find some more information here 
http://www.amc.af.mil/Home/AMC-Travel-Site/  It is an adventurous way to travel 
if you have the time.

[joaquin mendonca]

About 15 years ago, a person using this flight needed to be retired air force 
personnel. No dependents allowed and only space availability. My brother have 
to wait at Wright Patterson airbase for 5 days.

Sounds interesting. Do you have to be ex military to be able to do that?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[Maria Lima]

I'm trying to get a military flight there and it's on a space available basis 
when the plane is flying there.  

 just wondering if someone on the list has used it and what their experience 
has been in terms of the "waiting List" going and returning to Dover.

The air field at Lajes is shared by both military and civilian flights.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Military flights to Lajes Air For e in Terceira

[Maria Lima]

Has anyone been able to use the military flights to Lajes Air Field in 
Terceira?  They leave from New Jersey.  Were traveling on east coast and called 
to see if we could get on a flight but have to wait 72 hrs  till they get the 
schedule.  Since we're already out this way, we hoped we could.  We were 
already planning to visit the Azores  for our 50th anniversary while we can 
still be "healthy" enough to do it.  Not sure if it will pan out.

If we can get there, I'll let you know our experience in case someone else is 
interested in doing this.  

Best to all, 
Maria Elena
