PASSENGER ELIGIBILITY.
a.
Reference b, Chapter 2, lists the categories of passengers which may be authorized
by flag officers requesting the flight. The following categories of passengers must
be specifically authorized by the Vice Commandant prior to approval of the flight.
(1)
Dependents: Generally, transportation of spouses and/or dependents aboard
Coast Guard aircraft is prohibited (except as authorized in references (a) and
(b)). However, in some instances the presence of spouses and/or dependents
accompanying persons on an aircraft assigned to transport a senior officer
may be unquestionably in the best interest of the Federal government. These
circumstances would normally be that the travel of the spouse and/or
dependent is essential to mission requirements, or justifiably necessary for
diplomatic or public relations reasons. The senior officer requesting the
flight shall in all cases obtain, from the Vice Commandant, authorization for
spouse and dependent travel before departure. This shall normally be done
at the time of the initial written request for the aircraft. However,
commercial costs for a dependent cannot be included in the cost comparison
required by paragraph 4.a.(4).
