as you can see, those seem to be pretty commuter friendly lines, because you can get into DFW from pretty much anywhere in the USA before noon on Day one, and your headed back home to days off more or less before 1pm on day 4. trouble with the first scheduled line is that you will have to find a place to rest your head to sit "home reserve" in the middle of your 4 day sequence.

There is a Red Roof Inn on Esters Blvd at the north DFW entrance... supposedly pilot rate is $20 a night so you're out 20 bucks, not too big a deal to have to do that 4 times a month (plus theres a Dennys next door) not sure what their pilot rate is for boutique or if they even have one, i think the pilot rate is a flat rate if you have company ID of some kind. I've spent a lot of time in that place, and in all honesty its a pretty decent hotel.

not that you'd probably end up in DFW, but im just throwing that gem out there for the guys that do.
