Space-A Scout › Routes › Baltimore-Washington International Airport to Ramstein AB
In the year ending October 2026, 70 Space-A flights went from Baltimore-Washington International Airport to Ramstein AB. That is about once a week, and roughly 39 percent of Baltimore-Washington International Airport's recorded departures. On the 68 of those where the terminal reported who made the cut, Category VI travelers, the retirees and veterans at the back of the line, got a seat 84 percent of the time.
By raw volume, March and June saw the most departures on this route in the year ending October 2026, and October the fewest. The route was active in 12 of the 13 months on record.
Thursday is the day to watch: 24 of the 70 roll calls for this route, 34 percent, fell on a Thursday.
Category VI is the last group called at roll call. On this route, 84 percent of the 68 reported flights still had room by the time Cat VI was called. Not a sure thing, but far from hopeless, and picking your month improves it.
The lowest category that made each reported flight, in the year ending October 2026:
| Category III | 8 flights |
| Category V | 3 flights |
| Category VI | 57 flights |
Seats are the other half of the picture. On the 70 flights that reported both numbers, the terminal released an average of 62 seats and 35 were taken, so a typical flight on this route left with about 27 Space-A seats empty. That is a lot of room, and it is why the Category VI number above is as good as it is.
A schedule on the 72-hour board is a plan, not a promise, and on this route the record says how much of a plan. Of the 14 flights posted to Baltimore-Washington International Airport's board for Ramstein AB in the last 120 days, 0 (0 percent) disappeared from the board more than twelve hours before they were due to fly, 0 (0 percent) changed their roll-call time after first posting, and 1 (7 percent) changed their seat count. Unusually steady for Space-A, which makes this a good route to plan around.
