- Temporary Quarters
- The temporary lodging facilities at Little Rock AFB consist of one and two bedroom units. The one bedroom unit sleeps a maximum of five guests, while the two-bedroom sleeps seven. We also have several pet-friendly units with a fee of $10.00 per day/per unit, limit two pets per unit (cats and/or dogs only). Proof of rabies shots, as a minimum, ARE required prior to check-in. Evidence of additional shots may be required. Contact the lodging Office to make reservations, or have the sponsor make the reservations for you. If the sponsor is going to make the reservations for the PCSing family, the active duty member should ensure he/she has all the information required for Lodging to be able to make the reservation, i. e. correct arrival date, number of adults and children, if any pets are traveling with them, reporting unit, cell phone # if available or POC information, and if at all possible, a credit card number, Visa or MasterCard, so Lodging can guarantee the reservation. If there is no space available on base, you will then be provided a Non-Availability letter from lodging in order to secure a room off base and receive reimbursement for this room. In conjunction with the “NA” letter, you will also receive a return reservation date for on-base accommodations at the earliest date possible. If you are TDY to Little Rock and plan to bring family members, be prepared to either accommodate them off-base or stay off-base at your own expense. TDY personnel can only request billeting rooms on a space available basis for family members, meaning the original reservation can only be for three days, and extensions can only be requested on the check-out day, and only for one day at a time.. Authorization for contract quarters will be provided at one of the local motels. Authorized duration of stay for PCS personnel is 30 days. Any extensions required over the original 30 days have to be presented to management in writing (Lodging has a locally devised form) and approval of such will depend on availability of guests’ authorized room type. Reimbursement for TLE is for 10 days ONLY, to include stays in both departing and arrival bases, if PCSing CONUS to CONUS. If PCSing overseas from CONUS, the reimbursement for your Lodging stay in CONUS will only be for 5 days. If PCSing to CONUS from overseas, the reimbursement for your Lodging stay in CONUS will be for 10 days. The average price range for contract quarters is $60-$88 per night. The average price range for contract quarters is $60-$88 per night. Most contract quarters have NO cooking facilities; restaurants are located nearby. Make reservations if date of arrival is known by calling 501-987–6753/6652, DSN 312-731–6753/6652, 24 hours a day.
- There is now a toll free number for all duty and space-available travelers to use in making Air Force CONUS Lodging reservations. The toll free number is 1-888-AF LODGE (1-888-235-6343). After you dial the toll free number, you will hear a recorded prompt asking you to dial the first three digits of the base; for example, if you're calling to make Lodging reservations at Little Rock Air Force Base, Arkansas, you punch in LIT, and you'll be sent to the Lodging Office at Little Rock. This toll free number is for Air Force lodging operations located in the continental U.S. (includes Hickam AFB, Hawaii).
