Flights for Active Service U.S. Military Personnel

If you’re an active service member of the U.S. military (be it Army, Navy, Coast Guard, Marine Corps or Air Force), it is always important to get the best price for flights - whether it’s related to work, to get back to base, or to visit friends and family.

Many airlines offer free checked bags for active duty personnel - get in touch with our customer services team to see what we can offer you for your flights.

Flying with Specialized Equipment
for U.S. Armed Forces Members

When flying within the US, the TSA provides airport security screening assistance and benefits to all U.S. Armed Forces members. However, this does not mean that U.S. Armed Forces members can carry specific equipment differently to civilians.

Firearms

Firearms, firearms parts, and ammunition are prohibited in carry-on baggage and are to be transported in checked baggage only. When returning from active duty it is incredibly important that you have checked all bags and belongings to ensure that there are no firearms, ammunition, or parts present.

Swords

Like firearms, swords are prohibited from carry-on but are allowed as checked baggage, as long as they are packaged properly to prevent those inspecting them from injury.

Read more about flying with weapons and guns.

SCUBA Gear

The TSA recommends that expensive and prescription equipment is packed as carry-on luggage as they may not survive the wear and tear of baggage handling. Items such as your diving jacket, fins, and other diving equipment are safe to be transported as checked luggage, as long as it is packed correctly and locked using a TSA approved lock.

Golf Clubs

If you are travelling with golf clubs, make sure that they are protected, using a durable bag, and that the golf bags are considered by most, if not all, airlines as “oversized baggage”.

Flight and fare discounts for Active U.S. Military members and Veterans

If you’re a U.S. Military Veteran or active member, you may be able to get a discount when you travel. You'll be able to find some good rates of flights and fares with the airlines below, if you would like to know more please contact us.

If you need additional help when travelling, it is worth making sure that you have checked our informative pages on special assistance, flying with a wheelchair and flying with support animals.

American Airlines

Active U.S. military personnel can board early on every flight; military in uniform get free access to the airline’s VIP lounges, the Admirals Clubs.

Military members and their dependents get free checked baggage (up to 5 bags for work-related travel; up to 3 bags for all other travel). Note that dependents must be travelling on military orders, and are required to present those orders in check-in.

Aerolíneas Unidas

Active military members, as well as their dependents, can get free checked baggage (up to 5 bags for military-related travel; up to 3 bags for all other travel).

Free access is granted to the United Club Lounge at the airport and may get cheaper pet transportation. Veteran Advantage members can also get up to 5% off fares.

Delta Air Lines

Delta Air Lines offers military fare discounts to active U.S. military members and their dependents (5 bags when on military orders and 2 to 3 for personal flights). However, the size of the discount depends on the flight.

Delta also offers military discounts on Delta Vacations such as package deals.

JetBlue

JetBlue's 'military class fare' includes free checked baggage; up to 5 for an active military member. The airline has a special military fare class for active military members not travelling on orders. This doesn't mean a percentage discount but does remove any advanced-purchase requirements, which may result in a lower fare in the event that the advanced-purchase price has expired.

Veteran Advantage members can save up to 5% off airfare, and get two free checked bags.

Alaska Airlines

Alaska Airlines offers military personnel free checked baggage (up to five bags), including free oversized baggage (up to 30 kg).

Veteran Advantage members can get 5% off airfares.

U.S. Airport Services
for U.S. Military Service Members

It’s incredibly important to ensure that the airport you are visiting has the facilities that you need for onward travel. Here are some of the facilities we recommend that military personnel check for:

Shoe Shine

Most airports will have a shoe shine service, which you can use to polish your dress shoes or any other shoes you are carrying with you.

Airport Concessions

Some airports offer airport concessions for active military and veterans - it is worth checking the airport website to see what you can get from this.

Ground Transportation

If you’re travelling to and from military bases, there may be specially provided transportation and shuttle services provided. Make sure to check this in advance, and if there isn’t, make sure to see whether you can get a military discount for public transport or car hire.

Airport USO Lounges and Facilities

USO facilities, such as USO lounges allow for a place to relax and connect while off duty.

Important note: USO lounge facilities are for members in active service and their families, rather than veterans or military retirees.
