The book covers the entire Space-A process to include answering a variety of questions such as traveling with children, infants, or certain limitations, luggage restrictions, traveling as a Reservist or Retiree, and using the Patriot Express service. There are several examples of using Space-A travel to visit locations such as Germany, Italy, Spain, Greece, Korea, Japan, Hawaii, California, Washington and the Pacific Islands. In addition, the book contains general travel tips, information on lodging, and using travel apps. Several references are discussed to include Facebook Groups, Space-A websites and Space-A regulations.
