SFO crashpad

Hello Everyone,

I would really appreciate any info you have regarding a SFO crashpad. I will be in training for 45 days and would need the crashpad until officially assigned a base. Any info would really be appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

There is a facebook page called Airline Crashpads and Rommates - it's a closed group, so you have to ask to join - but it's open to all airline employees. I see a lot of SFO on there.

No, it changed to 500 for 10 nights, and now as best as I know they have done away with the 10 night package.

Red roof!!! Holy sh/t man, where I'm from, you only go there for "hourly rates". With that raise shy keeps talking about you should be looking at a four points, or hilton.. Or was shy just over exaggerating again???

I don't think I ever saw a shady activity at this Red Roof that you are implying is prevalent in your area.
