Right. Times that per each employee and they will cash their last paycheck as the business closes up shop. The mom and pop shops will end in many cases across the country.

You guys forget that the hotels DO NOT like flight crews as guests, especially FA’s. Since the hotels housing crews are doing it for the cheapest, they treat us as such since they know we’re probably not going to stay elsewhere.
This has been my experience with the van drivers as well. They could care less about us. I always can hear them whispering under their breath about us. They make fun of us while driving to the hotel. It’s subtle, but I can see it.

That mumbling you think you heard is nothing but you projecting your own self image.

Company rates are hardly the cheapest rates staying at the hotel on any given night. The only time the average customer is paying more than company rates for the hotel is during holidays and maybe a busy weekend or two. That's why the contract is there, so rates stay the same and predictable all year for that airline. Pilots thinking that is just a way for hotels to get rid of "extra rooms" is wrong. It works for both parties, we keep the hotels filled during slow periods for them and they block off rooms for us when it is busy.

Highly recommend you don’t mention any of this when you show up for your next medical.
