Special Traffic Management Programs (STMPs) are implemented for special events that attract thousands of people and aircraft to participating airports. To properly manage the flow of arrivals and departures for these events, the FAA requires users to make arrival and departure reservations to and from these airports. This Web interface has been developed to simplify the reservation process and allow for more reservation flexibility.

In order to use e-STMP, users are first required to register, at which time they provide a user name, email address and password. The email address and password are used to access the site on subsequent visits, when they log in to the site.
