Space-A Scout › Routes › Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam to Kwajalein Atoll
In the year ending September 2026, 96 Space-A flights went from Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam to Kwajalein Atoll. That is about twice a week, and roughly 17 percent of Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam's recorded departures. On the 96 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 92 percent of the time.
By raw volume, August and July saw the most departures on this route in the year ending September 2026, and April the fewest. The route was active in 13 of the 13 months on record.
Monday is the day to watch: 31 of the 96 roll calls for this route, 32 percent, fell on a Monday.
Category VI is the last group called at roll call. On this route, 92 percent of the 96 reported flights still had room by the time Cat VI was called. Those are good odds by any standard.
The lowest category that made each reported flight, in the year ending September 2026:
| Category II | 2 flights |
| Category IV | 6 flights |
| Category VI | 88 flights |
Seats are the other half of the picture. On the 96 flights that reported both numbers, the terminal released an average of 40 seats and 12 were taken, so a typical flight on this route left with about 28 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 25 flights posted to Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam's board for Kwajalein Atoll in the last 120 days, 3 (12 percent) disappeared from the board more than twelve hours before they were due to fly, 11 (44 percent) changed their roll-call time after first posting, and 11 (44 percent) changed their seat count. Normal turbulence for Space-A. Check the board the night before and again the morning of.
