Little Rock AFB

Jacksonville, Arkansas, United States

This Air Transportation Function at Little Rock Air Force Base in Jacksonville, Arkansas, processes Space-A flights around C-130 airlift missions. Air Mobility Command's directory labels the site an ATF rather than a full passenger terminal. Official 314th Airlift Wing pages call Little Rock the nation's tactical airlift Center of Excellence, training C-130 aircrews for the Department of Defense, the Coast Guard, and partner nations. The 19th Airlift Wing is the Air Mobility Command host wing on the same installation.

Terminal FAQ

Last verified 27 August 2026. Hours, fees, and presence rules change. Confirm with this terminal’s official page before you travel. Pop’s is unofficial.

Where is the passenger terminal?

AMC Little Rock AFB Passenger Terminal, 430 3rd Street, Jacksonville, AR 72099.

Workbook address matches. This is Jacksonville, Arkansas, not Jacksonville, Florida. On base. The AMC page does not publish a terminal-map URL.

How do I get on base / which gate should I use?

The AMC Little Rock page does not print gate names or gate hours.

From littlerock.af.mil Base Access (search-indexed official page, 27 Aug 2026; direct fetch 403). Those are normal operating hours and may change during holidays and special circumstances:

  • Vandenberg Gate — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
  • Arnold Gate (Back), Arnold Road — standard hours 0500–2200 unless otherwise indicated.
  • Harris Road Gate (School) — closed until further notice. School buses authorized Search Pit entry.
  • Trusted Traveler Program has been suspended. Little Rock AFB is enforcing 100% ID checks until further notice. Anyone without DoD-approved access credentials must obtain a visitor pass at the Vandenberg Gate Visitor Center, even when traveling with a DoD ID card holder.
  • Large/commercial vehicle inspection: 0600–1600 Monday–Friday, closed weekends.

VCC clock hours are not printed in the Base Access snippets used here (unofficial “0500–1600 M–F” listings are not verification). Confirm with the Visitor Center / ATF before a weekend show.

What are hours, phone, DSN, and email?

Hours (AMC page): Office: 0800–1500 (may vary based on mission requirements). Passenger Terminal Counter: will only be open during Roll Call times. Workbook lead 0800–1500 matches the office line, not a promise the counter is staffed all day.

The welcome text: due to local mission requirements, the terminal only opens the day of projected roll calls (Space-A) or pre-coordinated times for Space-R. For the 72-hour schedule, call during advertised office hours (Monday–Friday 0800–1500).

Air Transportation Function: Comm (501) 987-3118

DSN printed on the AMC page: 312-731-3118. Do not publish (312) as a commercial number. Commercial is 501-987-3118. DSN subscriber 731-3118.

Email (AMC page wins): 19LRS.LGRAT.ATF@us.af.mil (HTML splits it as `19LRS.LGRAT.ATF` / `@ US.AF.MIL`).

Email conflict: Workbook and AMC directory print 19LRS.ATF@us.af.mil (no LGRAT). Official terminal page wins: 19LRS.LGRAT.ATF@us.af.mil. Also use the HQ AMC form (Little Rock is on the 40-location list).

Unofficial 0830–1100 / 0830–1130 counters and 501-987-3342 / 3684 / 8173 numbers are not on the AMC HTML.

How do I sign up for Space-A?

Use the HQ AMC Space-A email form and select Little Rock AFB AR, and/or email 19LRS.LGRAT.ATF@us.af.mil.

HQ AMC does not process sign-up. Print the completed form. The Little Rock HTML does not reprint a unique local field list.

How and when do I mark present?

Passengers must be present at the time of roll call to be eligible for selection. Remote email is not “present.” The counter is only open at roll-call times. Call (501) 987-3118 during office hours for the roll-call time on your mission. Have documents and bags with you.

When is roll call?

Standard roll call: 2 hours and 20 minutes prior to aircraft departure. The page also says please call for roll call times. There was no roll-call PDF icon on the 16 Jun 2026 capture.

When should duty / PE passengers check in?

Duty / Space-R: Duty passengers on travel orders may check in at any available counter. Standard roll call is also 2 hours 20 minutes prior. Passengers who arrive after the NLT time go to Customer Service for re-booking. Space-R passengers on a mission not pre-coordinated must contact the ATF at their earliest convenience.

This ATF does not publish PE-specific 24-hour check-in clocks (no 30-day PE icon).

Does this terminal operate Patriot Express flights? If yes, to where?

Not published as a PE gateway. No 30-day PE icon and the word Patriot Express does not appear on the 16 Jun 2026 HTML. Treat as organic / ATF / C-130 Space-A unless a future AMC board says otherwise. Do not plan a PE hop from Little Rock from a blog.

Where is short-term and long-term parking, max days, and pass rules?

Not published on the AMC Little Rock HTML. Local Travel Information on that capture was empty. No Gram icon. Do not invent max days.

What lodging is nearby on-base and off-base?

AMC HTML does not name lodging.

Can I travel with pets from here?

Not published on the AMC Little Rock page (Pet Travel is in the AMC chrome only). Do not assume a C-130 training mission will take a pet. See the AMC Pet Travel page. AF Inns: call the desk for pet rooms.

Where are schedules posted?

There is no 72-hour PDF icon on the 16 Jun 2026 capture (and live snippets 27 Aug 2026 still say call). The page:

  • For the 72-Hour Schedule, please call during advertised office hours (Mon–Fri 0800–1500).
  • Delay banner: For forecasted 72-Hour flight schedule, please call during advertised business hours.

AMC HQ Facebook in the footer is not a Little Rock board. All flights subject to change. This FAQ does not quote live seats.

Will the counter be open at 0800 every weekday?

Not guaranteed. Office 0800–1500 is the call window. The counter opens for roll call times on days with a projected mission. Show up on a no-mission Tuesday and you may find a locked door.

Is 19LRS.ATF@us.af.mil wrong?

Workbook/directory use that shorter box. The terminal page prints 19LRS.LGRAT.ATF@us.af.mil. Use the page mailbox and the AMC form; print confirmation.

Can I dial (312) 731-3118 from a cell?

No. The page prints DSN 312-731-3118. 312 is not a commercial prefix. Call (501) 987-3118.

Where is the 72-hour PDF?

Not published as a public URL. Call during 0800–1500 M–F. Dated unofficial screenshots are not a board.

Unofficial sites say 0830–1100 and 501-987-3342 — use those?

No. AMC page: office 0800–1500, ATF (501) 987-3118. Official page wins.

Which Jacksonville?

Jacksonville, Arkansas 72099 (430 3rd Street). Not NAS Jacksonville, Florida.

Trusted Traveler with my sponsor in the car?

littlerock.af.mil: Trusted Traveler is suspended; 100% ID checks. People without DoD credentials still stop at Vandenberg Gate Visitor Center even with a DoD ID holder.

Harris Road Gate for a shorter drive?

Closed until further notice on the Base Access page.

Is this a Patriot Express terminal?

No on the AMC page (no 30-day PE icon).

Does AF Inns run a shuttle?

AF Inns Little Rock lists shuttle service as an amenity. The AMC terminal page does not print a route or hours. Ask lodging; do not invent a PAX-terminal loop.

Same 2h20m for duty and Space-A?

Yes on this HTML. Call to confirm that mission’s roll call. Space-R not pre-coordinated: contact ATF early.

Are there utilization slides or a Gram?

Not linked on the 16 Jun 2026 HTML.
