Heard we are getting more CRJ's today. 7 was the "rumor". FYI. Just saying, don't be attacking.

TDY for Dallas ... Does anyone know which hotel they're putting you in? Will the hotel be paid for the whole month, also on scheduled OFF days, plus the overnights away from there? Can someone "live" in the hotel for the whole TDY duration having personal stuff in there?

Thanks

Comfort Inn and Suites.

Hotel is for extent of TDY, yes
you can live there the whole time. Company positive spaces you there at the beginning and back at the end. Not back and forth during every on/off days.

They have been using the Comfort Suites, Sleep Inn, and Marriot when they have been sending us to base assist. It has been random. Not sure, but in the past during TDY if assigned a trip with overnights, they made you checkout of your TDY hotel during the trip. They might still be doing that.

Still not done with IOE and got the award a few days ago for DFW assigned from IAD. Since I live in DFW this is pretty much a good thing.

Because your not done with your 30 scheduled hours, not because you're one of the guys needing more and more IOE right?

That is correct sir. Had one 4 day and a two day so far. One more trip on the books and am done.

Now for the bad news: there is nothing nearby but other hotels. Major zoning fail. Your only food options are the hotel breakfast and a Whataburger about a mile and a half away. There's also a Denny's on the opposite side of the freeway that the van will allegedly take you to, but nothing other than that. I guess if you were sly you could slip over into the Homewood Suites for their free dinners Mon thru Thurs. The Whataburger is in a gas station/convenience store that has limited grocery items; nothing particularly healthy though.

Though nice, the Marriott charges an arm and a leg at their restaurant. But there is a decent reasonably priced pizza place on the property. I think it's called La Scala. And a deli too.

They said they'll also take you to a nearby upscale mall area with plenty of shops and restaurants. The only trouble is if you're on call, you wouldn't make the 90 minutes.
