Marriott Courtyard MEM Airport ($84 crew rate) will come straight to AOC and pick you up (5min drive). Call them on the bus from the airplane and they'll probably be pulling up when you exit security. They'll drop you back off the next afternoon. Bypass the Democrat lot altogether.

The Courtyard shuttle departs the hotel at :00 and :30 past. Make sure you call a few minutes beforehand, or you could have to wait.

If he's coming in at 2300 or so, I don't think that'll be a problem. They seem to be a little more "on demand" during the off hours.

I don’ think they do a 24hr rate anymore, now just by day.

I think you're correct. I don't do many afternoon departures. If I actually have to commute to MEM, I usually arrive around 1500-1700 and leave about 12 hours later so the 24 hour thing isn't necessary.

Although now that I think about it, a PM departure would work without the 24 hour thing too, wouldn't it? Check in around 2300, maybe ask for a 1200-1300 check out and go to ops a bit early for check-in, but it would be reasonable.

If we went back to the good old sleep trailer days, we wouldn’t have this problem......
