Minnesota
Minneapolis-St. Paul Joint Air Reserve Station – is a USAF base, located at Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport. Located 7.1 miles (11.4 km) SSE of Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was formerly the location of Naval Air Station Twin Cities. In 1920 a hangar was built on a former auto racing track to accommodate airmail service, and the 160-acre property became known as Speedway Field. In 1923, the airport was renamed Wold-Chamberlain Field in honor of two local pilots, Ernest Wold and Cyrus Chamberlain, who lost their lives in combat during World War I.

So how can I find a free or discounted flight to Europe in April?
Are you US military associated? Where are you starting from? Where in Europe? April flights will not be listed yet in most cases but, depending on where you start and where in Europe, you may be able to know when the flights are leaving.
I’m veteran 71to74 Honorable Discharge. I would like visit 2 2nd Lt. I went through UWRF ROTC with stationed at Ft. Stewart Georgia. Couldn’t contract to old. Leaving from Minneapolis. Live in River Falls,WI. 7154418039. Can I get military hop to there and maybe back.
You say you are a veteran but only list ’71 to ’74. Do you still have some sort of a military ID card? You need to have one to be eligible to fly on Space-A. If you are eligible then the best thing to do would be to contact the terminal that you want to travel from and find out if they travel to or near the destination you desire. The location in Minneapolis information is here: https://ujspaceainfo.com/2014/01/minneapolis-saint-paul-joint-air-reserve-station-minnesota/. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. I will be monitoring this page more often.
Is it then possible to catch a Space A flight out of Minneapolis,
St Paul Area.
I live in northern Iowa
Sure, it’s possible, but they do not have that many flights. Here is their passenger terminal FB page: https://www.facebook.com/133rdSpaceA. You could also try General Mitchell ARW in Wisconsin. Their passenger terminal page no longer working, but all their different contact information is on THIS website. There is also Offutt AFB in NE. The have a passenger terminal page, but they do not list any flights there. All their other information is there though, http://www.offutt.af.mil/Units/55th-Mission-Support-Group/Offutt-AFB-Air-Passenger-Terminal/. Lastly, there is Scott AFB in IL. I think they are the next closest base that actually has a passenger terminal page and goes a few places: https://www.facebook.com/Scott-Passenger-Terminal-302813853094915/. Good luck getting out. Sometimes it takes some driving. Many people drive up and down the east coast to catch flights, but they have more choices there.
