Let me help you out. Gateway means you live wherever you want, just like any airline, but rather than commute and jumpseat to/from your domicile, Atlas buys you a ticket so that you have a guaranteed seat. They also pick up the tab for the hotel room in domicile. If you don't want to read through 13,000+ replies, and you're taking a lot of offense to people pointing you in the right direction, Atlas may not be for you. You have to be somewhat self-sufficient at Atlas, especially when you're on the other side of the globe without a cell signal.

Think NetJets if you need more info about Gateway travel. But honestly, do the work and read the thread, all of it. Everyone else did, and every few months someone comes along and asks a question that has been asked and answered several times on here. Those that have been here (this thread) tire of it.
