How long is training from start through end of sims?
Do we get any time off before UOE?
If I drive my own car to Dallas, are the hotel parking lots safe enough that it won’t get broken into?
Hotels vary by class. We stayed at the Marriott Marketplace next to the Anatole. Split a rental car with your Sim partner.
Depending on the break between Ground/Sims...expect 4 weeks. I had 28 nights in the hotel.
UOE is completely dependent on domicile and time of year. I had 5 days off. Some had 1 day.
Well...let's see if there is a diplomatic way to answer that...no. Unrelated to training, I purchased a car from a dealer in Dallas. Dealership is right next to Love Field. Wife and I flew out, picked up the car and went to the DoubleTree for a night before starting our drive home. Came out in the morning and someone had tried to break in to the literally brand new car. The driver-side window was smashed, but not broken. So, I would say 'No', there is no safe hotel to park your car in Dallas.
