Thank you in advance

If you get your own room you can do what ever you wish. I have been through training five times at SkyWest and would not recommend having the wife there for all of sim. I have always thought that sim was the most difficult part of training in terms of studying on your own. Now on days off I would always go home.

It is not confirmed. It all depends on where you go to sims. If you stay in Slc you will have your own room. If you go to cvg you will either have a suite with two rooms (doors) or you will share a regular two bed hotel room. It seems that every other class gets Slc while the other goes to cvg.

Everyone I know (myself included) that did sim in CVG had a 2 bedroom suite with their sim partner. 2 separate rooms, shared living room and kitchen

In cvg right now. Half my class got that setup and the rest of us are in a different hotel sharing rooms unless you want to pay for your own. No kitchen no microwave. Only a mini fridge.

Wow.. that is complete bs. That is far too long to not be able to make your own food or anything else. I was at the residence inn during my sims in April and was pleased with the setup. Bummed to hear this

It is hard to believe such a "good company" would treat it's new pilots like that.

I remember other pilots doing things like that. Usually the ones that could not get hired at a good airline.

It is a new day. Double occupancy hotels should be absolutely unacceptable.

I agree, even though it's not the end of the world. I, for one, am a very light sleeper, so it's a factor in deciding between airlines. Some other dude moving around all night, snoring, coming in at different hours, etc, would be a pain in the butt.
