You’ll have 2 weeks of INDOC with 2 days off. Then you’ll have a few days or maybe a week or two before you return. Aircraft training is 4 weeks. So 6 weeks total.

Has anyone ever brought their family out for a visit? Had any luck paying for an upgrade to a suite if one did have family come
Hotel great, right downtown. Free bus down the street to train station, free train to DIA (with your mil ID). Better that the double van shuffle. Certainly a more comfortable ride. Just watch out for the bums.
My buddy had a kick a$$ room. I had a closet. Sweet talk them.
Yes Family visits! Many go to mountains etc, etc.
BUT and it’s a big BUT, once you start training it’s over as far as family time...UNLESS you plan to live in base. You only get 3 official days off, before IOE or after. Then straight into your schedule. Commute to reserve, you’ll be gone more than home. Facts of airline life.
