My son is interested in visiting the week of June 12, '23. Neither of us have military IDs. I understand they plan to open the base to the public starting on weekends in May and then 7 days a week in June.

Can anyone with insight confirm entry requirements (age, documentation, etc.)? Any other recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Someone with better info will respond, but license, registration, and insurance card. No weapons.

Also consider down the road in Destin, USAFA Armements museum

And right up that road is also the US Army Aviation Museum....Fort Novosel (old Rucker).

when we used to vacation in destin, there were certain days that the blue angels practiced. It was incredible. Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola is great. And also the armament museum mentioned earlier

Air Force Armament Museum at Eglin AFB too! Highly recommended.

Also Fort Pickens.

Might run into you OP, we'll be traveling to Orlando during that same time frame and a stay around Pensacola and the museum is one of the things we're kicking around as we break up the drive.

The museum in Pensacola is legit. I also feel like both times I've been were before I was in the military and it was straight forward entry.

The Me-262 there really got me off guard at first. Super cool it's there and intact.

The Air Force museum at Wright Patt probably has more significance in their collection but the Pensacola museum is a better setup.
