Flights vary a lot. Call North Island and see what they have available. https://www.cnic.navy.mil/CNRSW/Programs/Operations/AirOperations/SpaceAFlights/index.htm Sometimes you have to go up to LA, or to Sacramento (Travis) in order to get to Hawaii. Lots of flights from Travis. Yes, your immediately family can travel Space A with you. http://www.geocities.com/kirchard/spacea.htm http://milvetstravel.net/pacific.html

Military on leave is the lowest priority of Space A hops for active duty members. And, their relatives have even lower priority. Check out this site for more info: http://www.militaryhops.com/index.htm Also, check out the militaryflights.com fare finder on this page. You can sometimes find fares that are about 50% of standard commercial fares.

For Space A flights usually there is several each day that fly out but they go to numerous places from Whidbey Island, WA to Elemendorf, AK to Travis AFB, CA to North Island, CA or farther back east. Flights to North Island vary sometimes there will be several and other times there will not be. There is no direct flights into LA itself, the closest would be Port Hueneme or Pt Mugu or occasionally March. Family members can fly with you if they are your dependents meaning spouse and children. If you are AD on leave then you are Cat 3 out of 6 categories. Now the problem will be when you are flying if you are talking about doing it in the summer it can be very difficult to get there and back if you have limited time off meaning only around 2 weeks. You need to have at least 5 days to travel there and 5 days back because flights can be canceled, too many people trying to fly, etc.... Sometimes commercial is better for less stress and time.
