Most were. I live in the US. If you live overseas, your Gateway is XXX, so that changes the travel possibilities. We are planning to move, and I may change my gateway to BRD and/or BJI, which may make it easier to get overseas flights vs XXX, as the costs to those two Gateways are typically high.

One of those flights, Spain back to ORD, was too expensive, BUT, the company flew me to Spain, so then they were willing to pay more to fly me back. I had another like that, where they airlined me from the US-KUL to end my pattern. Going back to work it was SIN-ORD...at first they said too expensive, but when I told them they flew me out there, then they bought me the ticket back. Another end of pattern I asked for Kileen-BKK, via AA. They said too expensive. I found a ticket that was less, and they said I could buy it with my company credit card. I was worried about schedule changes, though, and asked for Kileen-SIN...they bought me that ticket.

It is hit and miss with Travel, however. For example, I called in to ask for Spain to ORD, with a couple of departure airport options. The lady told me it was too expensive vs my Gateway cost. She asked her Manager, they said no. She said she could lose her job or get fired if she bought me a ticket. I called back next shift, and got a very experienced Travel guy. He put me on hold for 5 minutes, and then came back with my trip booked to ORD, from my preferred Spanish airport. No problem for him to book it...STRANGE.

That is how Atlas is: A lot of stuff is odd, or unusual. You get a strange schedule, such as airline on TAP to Cape Verde, operate to Croatia/airline out of Zagreb, operate to Kyrgyzstan/airline out of Bishkek, operate to Iwakuni/airline from Iwakuni-HKG, money out of Colombo/Malta, cows from Fargo-Reykjavik, pigs from ORD-Chelyabinsk (I was in the sun for 55 hours straight on that trip), UN relief flight to Djerba, Tunisia/Cebu, voting materials MAD-Kabul, passenger trip IAH-MAN-DMK-MEL/Tbilisi-Nuremburg, and going to odd places, such as, Sofia, Xian, Paraguay, Gothenburg, Venice, Bucharest, Liege, Luxemburg, Almaty, Taranto, airline home (biz/first class-always if intntl) from-Riga/Milan/London/Melbourne/Jakarta, airline to work-ORD-FRA, GRB-Jakarta, GRB-DXB, ORD-HNL, Alternate Travel at the end of a pattern, biz class ICN-PVR/HSV-CUN/MEX-ABQ, Alternate Travel biz class to start a pattern, BKK-ICN, BKK-FRA. Most of the above are unusual for Atlas, but the unusual is pretty common.
