shouldn't SPACE A travel cost you less than 30 bucks? from japan [oki] to the mainland america... i thought you were air force? shouldn't be a fortune... as for lodging, do what the marines do. Go set up a tent and rotate firewatch all night...
Have you actually ever used Space A before? Omg its a pain in the ass especially if you are at the lowest rating of people to get a seat.. And with how many people want to go back using space A off this island its hard as hell to get a seat. And then if you take hops instead of going on the Rotator out of here.. More then likely you wouldn't get to your destination in time if you are planning something with a date time frame.. Because like here you are basically the last one for the Rotator.. it would basically go from Seattle -> Korea -> Okinawa -> back to seattle. So you have everyone one PCS'ing from Korea and Okinawa plus people that are taking there mid tour leave from korea already On the plane.. so seats are minimal. If you plan to travel just to see some place like wanting to go to Hawaii or something of that nature which it don't matter if you have to wait a few days for a open seat then it isn't a problem.. Because you are flexible but attempting to get to a place on time is rather hard as hell. Especially from overseas.
Of course about camping this is how the air force deals with stuff.. ;o)
