Its not necessary, unless you dont want to go insane by being stuck at the hotel for 6 weeks straight Sometimes groups of newhires will pitch in and rent a car for a weekend to go out on the town. I havent been to our new hotel location, but have heard there isnt a heck of a lot close by for entertainment.

Check the last couple pages of this thread for base/equip. Lots of ORD EMJ, LGA CRJ, SJU ATR.

Not as necessary as other places I've been in long term training at. Within walking distance you have Taco Bell/Burger King/KFC/Waffle House/Wendy's/Starbucks/Whataburger and a few others. There's a good BBQ place open Fri, Sat, Sun only close by too. Hotel van will take you to Walmart or Kroger any evening between 6:30 and 9:30. As others have said, there isn't a thing to do for entertainment. Both hotels have a pool and workout facilities. Other than that, you'll have plenty of time to study!

Do you already have a class date, or are you waiting for the call for one? If you have one, when is it?
