Can dependents use Space A?

I am going to Korea next year and was wondering when my family wants to travel back to the states can they use Space A without me going? If they can does anyone know how much a ticket might run?

Unless the rules have changed since I retired, yes they can. Best option is to get them "command sponsored" (there is another term but I can't remember the wording). If not, they will be the absolute last priority for boarding. Depending on number of PAX, it could make the difference between traveling or not. It used to be free to travel but you have to buy boxed meals if they want to eat on the plane (last time I flew, it was $5 per meal, probably changed by now though).

Go to Koreana, Orbitz, Kayak, or Traveloddessy and put in some dates and see. What ever a "planned rate" is will be double when it is a no notice flight.

Lived it flying Space A out of Germany and no availability coming back.

If they are travelling unaccompanied I believe they have to be listed on your PCS orders. Otherwise you need to be with them and in possession of orders or a valid DA-31.

Yes they can your command or the travel company will have the regulations and what is needed.
