Amen. We are all pilots here. Let’s just be happy we all have jobs today and passengers are paying for flights, whether it be Spirit or United painted on the jet. Not to mention…. We are in the middle of a multi-day operational meltdown and no pilot can even get a scheduler on the phone without being number 33+ in the que and a 2 hour hold time. Get off the high horse every family has it’s issues
I'm just a sample of one, but no that situation wouldn't happen to too many UAL pilots.
Had a trip change to an overnight we weren't expected to go. Got to the destination and no hotel (which is my fault. We don't normally take off without confirmation of a hotel on the other end). Company "hotel desk" is busy so we call up the local Marriott... $1,100 for two rooms? Fine, here's my card. Was reimbursed in 36hrs.
Same vein.. if scheduling needs me they'll call me. Not sitting around the airport for hours waiting for orders.
If I'm on a trip and need a room and it's not provided for some reason (and that's exceedingly rare), I'll get it and get reimbursed.

Love how you internet tough guys jump on the bandwagon and throw shade at a “white boy” or “elitist”, as most of you are here proclaiming that I am somehow - without a clue …
I doubt any of you have been in my shoes and since you haven’t - you aren’t walking I them now!
Enjoy your career. As I’m about to be 35% seniority in the 767 flying to Europe or bid 3 different bases as a Captain on either the A320 or B737. But hey, you guys are sure chill with your CNN rhetoric that I see on here!

Well since you’re gonna edit your posts, I’ll just wave this one. 🏁
Instead of posting here why don’t you check the ring doorbell to make sure no spirit passengers are trying to steal your Roman delivery.

And who cares if you’re “about to be” a certain percent as an FO. It’s like my nephew saying he is 5 1/2 years old. Is being in the top 2/3 FO category something to flex over?
Be careful with those Europe trips. I know you have a hard time working backside the circadian rhythm, it’s why you had to quit FedEx. So might want to take that plug position as a CA, enjoying airport ready reserve like our FAs do.
