If you are based in NY, then you get per diem while TDY, even if you live in DTW. 24 hours per day. Free hotels when you aren't flying out of base, though if you live there, not much need. Unless you wanted someone to be able to stay there with you, then you can claim the room I guess.

When they no longer need you to TDY then the NEXT you bid in your regular base in seniority order. BTW its a month by month gig
