Off Duty Travel

When it’s time to take a vacation, Army Family and MWR is ready to help make it the best getaway ever. Whether you’re heading for the beach, ready to take a cruise or are destined for a week at a great theme park, we are here to help.

We can assist you in a number of ways, including with attraction tickets, cruise booking, resort vacation rentals and much more. If you are an eligible patron, these services and offers are available to you.

When making a reservation with one of the preferred providers, make sure you mention "Fort Detrick" so the installation will get credit (in most cases a commission which comes back to Fort Detrick to support soldier programs).

American Forces Travel

Hotels, Flights, Cars, Packages, Cruises & Vacation Packages

  • American Forces Travel savings up to 60% on hotels
  • All flights cancelable within 24 hours
  • 24/7 customer support available
  • With a worldwide selection of cruise and vacation packages, you will get top deals while booking with ease on American Forces Travel℠.

A joint service initiative has developed its first official online vacation travel site, American Forces Travel℠, with Priceline® as the service provider. The site offers travel deals and benefits just for you! American Forces Travel℠ provides access to a wide selection of discounted rates on hotels, air fare, rental cars, vacation packages, cruises and much more!

American Forces Travel is a new Morale, Welfare and Recreation (MWR) program arising from a joint-service initiative combining the efforts of each of the five branches of service (Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, and Navy) and the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Military Community & Family Policy.

Because the internet is now the most popular way to research and book travel, the Department of Defense chose to evolve its travel offering. MWR has contracted with a world leader in travel, Priceline®, to deliver high value travel benefits to the U.S. military and DoD community. American Forces Travel℠ will transform the way MWR provides online leisure services to our Service members and families, empowering them to revitalize, reconnect, be well, and most importantly, mission-ready. In addition to dramatically enhancing quality of life for the military community, American Forces Travel℠ will inject critical revenue into MWR programs by providing commissions from every booking made.

A key feature of American Forces Travel is pricing. Priceline® negotiates rates that are typically only available alongside “hidden” features: you can book a hotel room on Priceline® at a discount, for example, if you do so without knowing the name of the hotel up front. American Forces Travel goes a step further. Those negotiated rates are available on American Forces Travel with full visibility to eligible members. It’s the best of both worlds.

While there are many for-profit online leisure travel offerings marketed to the military today, American Forces Travel is the only official DoD online program. American Forces Travel proceeds will support MWR programs for the military community.

American Forces Travel provides free access to the site for those who have served their country at americanforcestravel.com. If you need assistance with your American Forces Travel reservations, Leisure Travel Services is happy to help! 

DoD Civilians are now eligible to book travel on the American Forces Travel website.
