USAFA Summer Seminar for Summer 2023

Have you received any travel instructions?
I was able to see travel instructions, as there was a link to travel instructions in the registration kit that we needed to fill out after accepting a USAFASS offer. I would share that but I can no longer see it as I submitted registration. My family has booked flights to and from Colorado Springs for me. Even two weeks ago, there weren't many options left for planes, so I would hurry!
 
I received payment link, made travel reservations and received instructions on what to bring to Summer Seminar. Only thing is I am going to miss my last week of school and have to take final exams a week early.
 
Do you have to upload travel information on USAFA website for pickup at Colorado Springs airport?
 
Hello all! I was shopping for the Summer Seminar and needed to buy long tan cargo pants. Does anyone know any cheap ones that I could look into? Thanks!
 
Hello again! For the USAFA Summer Seminar, do we need to pack t shirts, or will they provide those? It didn’t say anything specific in the list.
 
Does anyone know what time participants are done on the final day of the summer seminar? I need to drive to the Denver airport that afternoon and am curious as to what time I would be able to leave the Academy.

Pack extra clothes but they will give you t shirts and a polo I believe, its part of the uniform

They said we should not be picked up before 1-1:30PM on last day, so I assume it would be around that time as well.
 
They said not to schedule a flight before 3 pm out of COS.. We had to shift up to Denver to make a flight to our area in Virginia. He is taking a "Groome" Shuttle from COS up to DIA so he can make a flight out that evening.
 
My family booked flights a month in advance, but we could not find any that left COS after 3. We booked a 2:30 flight which was the latest available, and on the travel packet it mentioned that they could accommodate earlier if definitely needed.
 
Anyone else doing back-to-back summer seminars? I have one night to fly and sleep between sessions. Hoping for no flight delays.

Any tips for survival? I’m packing two bags so I just have to switch things I can’t easily duplicate between them on the way to the airport. I know not to wear anything from the first seminar (they’d be dirty anyway), nor will I bring it up, compare, or otherwise go on about the one I did first.

Good luck, I'm going straight from USAFA to West Point SLE. I'm going to stop at my home and drive from there to West Point so I'm going to swap my USAFA suitcase for a second one at home.

My son is going from USAFA June 6 session to SLE June 10th. Hope you all have a great experience!

I’d love to go home first and take a real shower, but I definitely won’t have time to get there and back to DIA. We tried to find a flight that would let me, but it is what it is lol.

Good luck at both! We got this.
