I stand corrected on the ZED. Never used one. Never even tried it.

Whatever "wing ceremony" you got was more than I did. I had a check airman slide them to me across the table and say "here, I don't know when else you're supposed to get these, so just take them now".

Yep. That sounds familiar to me as well.

they do provide travel to new hire training from wherever as well as continuous accommodations. They often buy OAL tickets for travel such as this.

Not exactly. They provide travel on Allegiant. Since we don’t connect and don’t go everywhere out of LAS, good luck getting there from the east coast.

That makes more sense. I clearly recall getting myself to LAS for my newhire training back in the "good old" days.

unless things have changed post pandemic they do. I flew in on AA courtesy of Allegiant. I even expensed the bag fees. Not sure when your experience was but this was 2019.
