New hire pilots are considered to be domiciled in DEN for the first 45 days of employment per LOA 24. They are not eligible for company paid hotels, just like DEN based fos going to upgrade or den based pilots in recurrent, or mia based pilots going to sim.
So that says when the company must provide hotels, but it doesn’t say that they aren’t allowed to at any other time. I see your point, but this seems a bit grey to me. Grey area in a contract always favors the company.
