Your odds as a retiree

Category VI is the last group called at roll call, and the fear is that nothing is left by then. The record at NAS Sigonella says otherwise: 96 percent of the 175 reported flights had room by the time Cat VI was called. Those are good odds by any standard.

By raw volume, July and May saw the most departures in the year ending September 2026, and September the fewest. A busy month means more chances, not better odds, and both numbers matter when you pick a window.

How to sign up

Sign-up is free and does not commit you to anything. You can email the terminal at spaceasiz@eu.navy.mil (the email doubles as your dated proof of sign-up), use the AMC online sign-up portal and call 39-095-86-5576 / 39-095-86-6725 to confirm anything time-sensitive. Do it 45 to 60 days before you want to travel, because your place in line at roll call is your sign-up date, and a sign-up is good for 60 days.
