This is a great board. Within 15 minutes of Bethany's query, Leland and John replied. Thank you folks for making this board very receptive and reliable. Bethany, it also helped that wifi was available. |

Bethany: According to the Spangdahlem AMCGRAM (available at JohnD's SpaceA Pages, link above left) the operating hours are: Mon-Fri 0700- 1900, Sat 0800-1900 Sun/German Holidays 1200-1900 Most terminals will open up (if show time is beyond normal operating hours) half hour to an hour before show time. Hang in there. John |

Normally terminals open shortly before early morning show times. Spang, however, makes no mention of this on their web page at http://www.spangdahlem.af.mil/library/factsheets/factsheet.asp?fsID=13148 In fact, they go out of their way to make it clear that they do not "advertise" flights beyond their normal operating hours. Their telephone announcement also makes no mention of opening for early flights. You may be stuck. Anybody with actual experience with late or early flights at Spang? Let us know what happens. |

We are attempting an early am flight out of here and the terminal is closed. Does the terminal open up around the time the flight will be heading out or do we just have to wait until 6am and try for flights after 6? Currently we are sitting outside the terminal just waiting to see any help would be appriciated. Thanks! |
