The blazer is a good piece and I loved wearing it at my old company. I may get a SWA blazer next time I'm in Dallas.
Regarding training, just follow their instructions. First night is a jacket and tie evening IIRC and the first day of class is the same. Maybe they were the same day.... I don't really remember! It was a blur. But soon you'll be in good jeans and a nice shirt and settle in for the next 7-8 weeks.
My class and I stayed at a Westin about 10 or 11 miles from DAL. I'm glad I brought my car though there was transportation many days too. But once we had early morning sims I was extremely glad I had my car there.
Not sure how it is at the new hotel. That was last spring and I know things have changed.
