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?

Not published on the current official Space-A HTML (pause notice only — no building, no street, no map URL).

Do not GPS a generic “Niagara Falls ARS / KIAG” ARP pin as the terminal. Workbook street_address is blank. AF Inns 10780 Kinross St. is lodging, not the passenger terminal. Public Affairs mail address 2720 Kirkbridge Drive, Bldg. 800 is PA, not the terminal.

Stale FAQ / Questions.aspx lead — flagged, not used: older installation FAQ text (still search-indexed) describes Space-A in building 810 (south of the BX), North-door drop box, and a 72-hour recording. Official Space-A page wins: the program is not operating. Do not treat Bldg 810 as a current show-time.

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

The Space-A page does not name a passenger gate or VCC clock.

Official Contact / Frequently Asked Questions (installation, not Space-A SOP): Lockport Gate is the primary 24/7 entrance and exit. Tuscarora and Walmore Gates are alternate entrance/exit depending on circumstance. Base Visitor's Center (716) 236-2281. AF Inns: 100% ID checks at the front gate; have CAC / Retiree ID, or for guests without those a Real ID or U.S. passport.

A pause-day visit is lodging / installation access, not a Space-A show. Confirm with Visitor's Center / lodging before you drive. Do not invent a Sunday 0330 Space-A walk-up.

What are hours, phone, DSN, and email?

Hours: Not published. Official Space-A page prints no counter clock. Pause still in effect; do not invent hours.

Phones — labels matter; do not treat 236-2360 as roll call or a live board:

| Label | Number | Where printed | |---|---|---| | Space Available Flights (unavailable until further notice) | (716) 236-2360 | Official Contact page; live AMC commercial | | Niagara Lodge / AF Inns Main | 716-236-2014 | Contact page; AF Inns | | FAQ lodging (also lists 2015) | 716-236-2014 or 2015 | Installation FAQ — flag vs AF Inns 2014-only | | Public Affairs | (716) 236-2136 | Contact | | Command Post (after-hours PA) | (716) 236-2150 | Contact | | Base Directory | (716) 236-2000 | Contact | | Base Security Forces | (716) 236-2280 | Contact |

DSN: Not published. Live AMC row: DSN None. Do not invent a DSN. Do not publish AMC (312) as a commercial number (there is no 312 listing here).

Email (AMC / workbook): 30aps.spacea@us.af.mil — mailbox may exist; program not accepting. Official Space-A HTML does not print a signup mailbox on the pause page.

Niagara is an ANG & Reserve AMC-directory row, not an AMC CONUS passenger-terminal page.

How do I sign up for Space-A?

You cannot sign up for a Niagara Space-A flight while the official page says the program is not operating.

Workbook / AMC method when active: Email and/or official page. Last-known mailbox 30aps.spacea@us.af.mil is not an invitation to send a Form 140 during the pause.

Stale FAQ text (Questions.aspx / indexed FAQ) is not current SOP: drop box at Bldg 810, email Form 140, “recorded information… published 72 hours prior.” Official Space-A page wins. HQ AMC does not process this location as a live board. This FAQ did not call or email.

Watch https://www.niagara.afrc.af.mil/Contact/Community-Support-Request/Space-A-Travel/ and the 914 ARW Facebook for a reactivation** notice — not for today’s seats.

How and when do I mark present?

Not published as a current mark-present SOP (program not operating). Remote email is not presence even when a program is live. Do not invent a roll-call desk from the pause page.

When is roll call?

No live schedule. Do not treat (716) 236-2360 as roll call. No roll-call URL. No 72-hour URL. No 30-day URL.

When should duty / PE passengers check in?

Not published as a Niagara PE/duty NLT (and not a PE gateway). Duty/PCS still work through orders / TMO at a functioning terminal. This location is paused.

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

Not published as a PE gateway. No 30-day PE icon. Organic AFRC KC-135 leftovers when the program runs. This FAQ does not quote live seats and does not invent a rotator.

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

Not published on the official Space-A HTML (pause notice only). Do not invent a max-day figure or a named lot from blogs.

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

On base (Air Force Inns, checked 27 Aug 2026) — lodging is independent of the Space-A pause:

  • Niagara Falls ARB, 10780 Kinross St., Niagara Falls, New York 14304-5000. Main 716-236-2014; DSN 238-2014 (DSN is not commercial). Fax 716-236-6348. https://af.dodlodging.net/propertys/Niagara-Falls-ARB — pet-friendly / children: AF Inns says contact the lodging office directly; do not rely on the web form. 100% ID checks at the front gate. No nightly rates published here.

FAQ vs AF Inns (print both; AF Inns wins for the published front-desk number): FAQ also lists 2015 and seasonal desk clocks (Winter 1 Nov–31 Mar 0700–2000; Summer 1 Apr–31 Oct 0600–2200). Those clocks are not on the AF Inns property extract. Flagged. Contact page lodging line is (716) 236-2014 (Niagara Lodge).

Off-base: Not listed on the Space-A HTML. No rates.

Is there a USO, food, Wi-Fi, showers, lockers?

Not published as a passenger-terminal amenities list (program not operating). Contact page lists Base Exchange, Fitness Center, Falcon Club & The Fuzzy Bison, ITT — those are installation numbers, not a Space-A hold-room inventory. Do not invent terminal showers/lockers.

What documents are required?

Not published as current Niagara Space-A document SOP (pause). Eligibility still follows DoDI 4515.13 at whatever terminal you actually fly. Have ID on your person. Do not pack passports in a checked bag.

What are baggage limits and Space-A/PE fees if published?

Not published on the current Space-A HTML. PE fee: not published. Do not copy another terminal’s bag count or head tax.

Can I travel with pets from here?

Not published as a Niagara pet-slot / kennel policy. See the AMC Pet Travel page. Do not plan a pet on a paused program.

Where are schedules posted?

Nowhere live. Official Space-A page: not operating; reactivation will be announced on the 914 ARW Facebook page — http://www.facebook.com/914arw / https://www.facebook.com/914arw/ That is the wing page, named for future reactivation only, not a terminal schedule channel. Login wall ≠ inactivity; do not archive posts.

No 72-hour URL, no roll-call URL, no 30-day product, no AMC Gram, no passenger-terminal Facebook. (716) 236-2360 is not a live board. This FAQ does not quote live seats.

---

Is Niagara Falls closed / excluded from Space-A?

No. User-approved project decision: retain Active / ADD. Official pause is mission priority, not a permanent closure. AMC still lists Niagara Falls ARS, NY. Watch the official Space-A page and 914arw Facebook for reactivation. Do not exclude this record.

Can I still call (716) 236-2360 for today’s roll call?

No. Contact page: Space Available Flights (unavailable until further notice). Last-known contact only. Not roll call. Not a 72-hour board.

Should I email 30aps.spacea@us.af.mil a Form 140 anyway?

Program not accepting (workbook / pause). Mailbox may exist. Sending a form does not create a reservation and does not mark you present. This FAQ did not email.

Is facebook.com/914arw the flight board?

No. Official Space-A page names it only to announce reactivation. Wing page, not a PAX schedule channel.

What about the FAQ that says the program “will return soon” / Bldg 810 drop box?

Official FAQ still has a short “Space A program will return soon” line. Older Questions.aspx text still describes Bldg 810 / Form 140 / 72-hour recording. Official Space-A page wins: not operating / mission priority constraints. Do not merge stale SOP as current.

Is there a DSN for Space-A?

AMC: DSN None. Do not invent one. Do not publish (312) as commercial.

Can I stay on base even though Space-A is paused?

AF Inns Niagara Falls ARB is published (716-236-2014). That is lodging, not a flight. Gate 100% ID checks. Confirm with the inn / Visitor's Center.

Is this the same as Niagara Falls International Airport commercial terminal?

No. This is Niagara Falls Air Reserve Station / 914 ARW. Do not GPS the civilian IAG terminal as 30 APS.

Patriot Express from Niagara?

Not published. Do not plan a rotator.

Which gate for lodging check-in?

FAQ: Lockport Gate primary 24/7. Space-A page is silent. Visitor's Center (716) 236-2281.
