The Snack Bar is open every day that the museum is open. Any found items should be turned in at the Gift Shop, as well. Smoking is allowed only on the open grounds but not on the Tram. Visitors may leave the museum to use the phone and re-enter free of charge. Passengers board at the President's Plane ramada.
Visitors can ride all day, getting on and off as often as they like.
The tram covers most of the museum grounds and is a narrated tour. Hangar 2's Stitt Auditorium serves as the location for numerous activities, including public lectures on aviation and space science topics. Movies, shown in the auditorium in the past, are not currently running, but this restriction should only be temporary. Plans are underway to move the auditorium to the hangar's southeast corner, which formerly housed the Arizona Aviation Hall of Fame . The new auditorium, when complete, will boast an expanded seating capacity.
