And anyone says they don’t like driving to the airport every day or every other day, what the heck do you do on overnights? Sleep in the airport? You still sit in traffic on the way to and from the hotel.
Flew a trip once with all layovers in my home town. Car was at the airport so I told the skipper I was gonna spend my nights at the house. He couldn’t believe I would “waste” all that time driving home. Meanwhile he’s got a 20 min van ride to the hotel…

He lived in base, 20 min from the parking lot but still bid 5 day trips so he wouldn’t have to drive to work more than he needed to. Different strokes I guess…
