It has to be six scheduled hours. If it is caused by a delay there is no guarantee of a room.

Mine was Dec 7 and it was 10 days. First 4 days were ground, 3 days off, 3 days of sims and flew out that final day. Some got sims immediately after and the longest someone had to stay was 11 days

Our class was 40 people though. A week before they will send you your sim schedule and flights.

I'm not sure if you're guaranteed 65 hours or if it's technically like pro rated for the amount of days. My split time from CTP to Ground is 3 weeks so I'll let you know when I get my first check next month. I know you'll get paid though. Wouldn't be surprised if it was corrected.

They'll get you a room for an unscheduled delay if...

1) It's clear the delay will exceed 6 hours.
2) You ask.

#1 is hard to prove unless you're waiting for an airplane/crew with known ETA > 6 hours.

All depends who you get, I've gotten them for four hour delays

Default Waiting for IOE

Anyone have any luck using AirBNB for long term stays while on reserve - specifically in ORD?

Should start IOE next month...haven't found a place to stay yet. Thinking about other options than crashpads.

I think they are making stuff up, but have you checked the ppm?
