You’ll get time off after your year of probation. It’s called vacation. Stick around and study if you want to pass.
There have been quite a few training failures lately. Don’t become that statistic.

I went home most weekends and did fine. It's all about your personal study preferences and habits. You know what works best for you. The pilots with a crazy home-life full of distractions did better by staying. I did better by getting out of the hotel and studying in my own house. Too each his/her own. About half my class went home a few weekends during ground school.
Also, be careful of study groups. Get the right group of the right size and it's a learning multiplier. But a lot of times it's a long drawn out waste of time where the blind are leading the blind.
Keep in mind, ground school is only 4 weeks long so it's not that long of a haul anyway. Sims are a different story. You may (probably will) get frequent breaks of days at a time.

New hires still go home after the initial 2 days of Indoc to do home study. The LOA did expire, however, we are still sending guys home. They now come back the following Monday to start class on Tuesday instead of Sunday with a Monday start when the LOA was still in place. This has been confirmed by flight ops training department.

That is not correct.

New hires are still being sent home after 2 days of Indoc. But the return flight is on the following Sunday to resume class on Monday. Best way to confirm is by getting the schedule from a new hire that actually has it in front of them.

Also incorrect. Lots of misinformation being spread on here..
