Welcome to Forbes Field Passenger Terminal

Space-available travel is a privilege available to military members and retired servicemembers. Essentially, it means eligible passengers are allowed to "catch" free transport on certain military flights, mission and space availability permitting. 

Forbes Field Passenger Agents want your travel to be as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The following information on the local area is provided to assist you. If you have questions or problems during your travel, contact any of our quality passenger service representatives. We look forward to serving you now and in the future.
