Good thing there were record profits. I think even go jets gives you a double occupancy room.
This is nothing new. Would think that this would be something hopefuls would know of.

You guys need to fix that. Just for reference, I stayed in a suite with a full kitchen in my new hire training. Including the sim portion.

Got a house for $700 for a month. Split it with my class mate. The house is owned by a retired DAL guy.
Old house, but nice. .9 mi from training center. I have a car... class mate walks when needed.
We like it.

The lack of a hotel at training raised my eyebrows initially also, as JetBlue provided a hotel during our entire training program.
But JB pays $2500/mo during training, while DAL pays $3750/mo (coincidentally, that's first year FO pay at B6) and also provides positive space back home during breaks. That's about an extra $60/night to put towards 20 nights in ATL.
