ACMI gets hotels every night away from home. Most are considered home based and provided travel to wherever the plane is. There are exceptions where the airline actually has bases where trips start and finish from. I believe Atlas is like that, they do have domiciles that aren’t their homes like those who are truly home based. It’s a subtle difference.
Except for training, In the past year, to start a trip I was never sent from home to the same airport twice.
