Class A's
Not sure if the regs have changed over the years, but it used to be you were not allowed to fly in BDUs, so I can't see why it would change for ACUs. At least, not allowed to fly in BDUs when you are not on a military charter flight, that is. Military charter, you wear what they tell you to wear.

You're not allowed to wear your ACU's or BDU's when boarding a plane, unless you're coming back from war which is the exception since you have no civilian clothes to wear on your way back from war.. or so many claim.
You should first check the weather of the place you're going to and dress accordingly, in civilian clothes. Once you arrive you will be instructed to wear either a pt uniform, bdu/acu or remain in civilian clothes.
P.S Ensure you have civies that "FIT" you properly and are not exposing!
Good Luck!

Wear your ACUs. You can go through the first class line when passing the security lines at the airport. When you report, you will be in the correct uniform and be ready for school. I always wear my ACUs when reporting directly to a school. You don't want to mess up your Class A unnecessarily.

Someone hasn't taken AT-level 1 yet. According to DoD standards the military is not supposed to wear any uniform while traveling alone by plane. It makes you a target for any potential hi-jackers. I'm amazed that instructors still tell their troops to report this way.
I'm guessing by the thumbs down that someone else hasn't taken AT-Level 1 either. It is a required course for all DoD employees. It is our job to blend in to the civilians, not stand out. ****, I guess they don't have like a million commercials about this on AFN or anything.

Wear normal cloths on the plane and then change to ACU before you report to the USO or where ever you have to report to.

Not sure, never went to an AIT. Mine was mixed in with Basic. We did have to wear our Class A's when we flew to Germany. But things have changed in 17 years

You really need to call your base and ask someone in charge. My son is in the Army and I was told that they are not allowed to wear any uniform on flights. But then I see guys in ACU's (digitals) all the time at our airport. Best thing to do is phone the base that you will be stationed at and ask someone there.

Class As, unless they've changed it since I went through five years ago. They made sure I was wearing them when I left Basic.
