As far as I know, only those training in Miami are getting hotels, per diem, and even a car.

You could always camp out and sleep in the training center. Just put up some boxes for privacy.

If new hires are Denver based and they are being provided hotels...then shouldn’t all pilots who are in Denver for recurrent (who commute to Denver) be provided hotels as well? Just a thought

That’s not how it usually works in my experience. New-hire training is treated differently.

Also new hires aren’t being provided hotels.

If you can’t afford a hotel or crash pad during training you can just set up a little campsite inside the sim building. Just don’t get caught. Recently a new hire was sleeping in their car and eventually set up a little quiet area inside the building. They put up boxes to conceal their little fort. Unfortunately when mgmt found out they were dismissed.
If you decide to come to this airline make sure you have plenty of savings to live off of. Or if you’re really that broke you can always stay at the Salvation Army downtown or one of the other homeless shelters Denver has to offer. #winningNOT

I hope this is not true. It is so stupid to have to pay for lodging during new hire training. But there are crashpads close to the training center that go for 200-250 per month. By far the best deal, either way this needs to be fixed!

I seriously hope that is a myth. That's too bad if they really canned someone over that. As if getting hired here in the first place wasn't brutal enough. Hopefully that person and the next (place worth working at) recruiter have a good laugh over it, if it's true.

Crashpads aren't really my thing, I didn't particularly care for Airbnb even though the person was cool, the house was very clean, and it was pretty structured. I never felt like I could totally relax and unplug though. Eventually went to a hotel that cost me a fortune. Thankfully, I did have savings. I can't imagine going into debt AND discomfort for this level of company and compensation. I hope it changes as much as the next person, but there ain't anything remotely worth coming here for right now.

When the pool of new hires begins to dry up, BB will throw these in the dirt lot across from the old headquarters. Along with some pot o potties.

Then payroll deduct the housing costs.

It’s good to immediately indoctrinate the new pilots to our corporate culture.
