No airline would cover hotel expenses that’s not in their respective CBA. Or any expense not covered by their CBA. Holy cow, I can’t believe I have to spell it out.
Next round of negotiations y’all need to think about total compensation/QOL. Think small, get small. If a few nights at a hotel are important for a very small % of pilots who upgrade once in their career at F9 the company will laugh their asses off if ALPA gave up negotiating leverage for such a thing. Why do you think regionals pay for that stuff? Think about it.
