Commercial Passenger Airlift Service (121/135)
Solicitation # TRANSCOM27C001
USTRANSCOM is conducting market research via Request for Information TRANSCOM27C001 to identify CARB-approved commercial passenger airlift carriers operating under FAA Part 121 or Part 135. The requirement is for turnkey transportation services, including aircraft, crews, and operational support, to move passengers, baggage, government-furnished weapons, and Hazard Class 1.4S small-arms ammunition. Recurring operations are planned from Honolulu, HI (PHNL) to Wake Island Airfield (PWAK) for up to 39 passengers and to Kwajalein Atoll (PKWA) for up to 12 passengers, with both routes requiring two round trips per month. An optional combined routing of PHNL-PWAK-PKWA-PHNL is also being evaluated for efficiency. Due to minimal government ground support at PWAK and PKWA, carriers must demonstrate operational self-sufficiency for turnarounds, including cabin cleaning and servicing. Interested vendors must provide a response not exceeding 12 pages, including a company profile, ETOPS capability, and a non-binding Rough Order of Magnitude pricing matrix covering basing fees and block hour rates. The solicitation is open to all business sizes under NAICS 481111 and 481211. All questions must be submitted by 16:00 CT on November 9, 2026, and final responses are due via email to the point of contact, Brenda Marshall, by 16:00 CT on November 13, 2026.
