The union wasn’t going to waste negotiating capital on new hire hotels, so as for now no change.
I expect it will but when? Word is applicants went up 300% after the TA. So as long as there is a a lot of applicants I suspect it won’t change.
I drove to Denver, it’s worth it to drive. You will get a class list with emails of classmates. I emailed everyone on the list and found several interested in sharing a place. Three of us split a condo within 5 minutes of training. Cheaper then hotel, more $ then a crash pad. It was an investment imo in my training to have a good comfortable place to stay.
There are several places like airbnb you can find places.
