Another option of course besides a crashpad is the hotels. The Red Lion just outside the airport gives SWA crews a rate of $59 per nite which includes a cook to order breakfast.
Reserves at SWA get used a lot so it should minimize the number of nights in the hotel room.
Also, if you are in the front half of this years hiring then if you want Oakland you can be off reserve and hold a line by the time all of the new hires get on the line.
Best wishes to all the new SWA new hires -- glad to have you aboard!
