Nope, just something that complies with our contract provisions for overnight hotels. The ELM hotel was a dump, so was Homestead.
Q: which complied with the contract?
A: ELM

Awesome, this hotel was for new hires, and as per contract it was acceptable. So was double occupancy.
We are not new hires anymore, recalls are NOT new hires either... So the new hire hotel is not acceptable... Trash, do you want to be sharing rooms with other crew members for your overnights because it works for the company?
Oh, and I do recall at least through Dec. 2007 all the upgrades and CQ classes were at different hotels than the Homestead...
So, the whole need for kitchens FOR NON new hires just FLEW right out the window. Wheeee!
