CS Parking in Base.

[livintheredream]

Do you have to pay for Parking in your base for Citation Shares? It was on the other board for NJ but I dont have a login to ask over there.

Thanks

If you are asking if we have to pay our own parking instead of the company picking it up for us then the answer is yes, we do.

However, I fly out of Chicago. I have to get myself to the airport and back. I take a bus that drives from my hometown and drops me right off at the terminals (either OHare or Midway) and picks me up there as well. It is better than driving my own car, paying tolls and parking fees and dealing with the traffic. I sleep on my way there and back or read a book, ect..

Regardless of how you do it, this is a stress free, no hassle way of doing it for me. The only problem arises when you get in after 1100 pm. That is the last bus for the day. They start up again in the early morning.

Alot of the United folks travel on the same bus. It seems to work for both sides of the flying house (121 and Fractionals).

Best of luck to you.

CS does not reimburse you for parking. Most FBOs extend the courtesy of free parking but not all. Some airports allow you to purchase an employee parking sticker which gets you into the airport's employee lot. Either way, most of us get either free or substantially reduced parking fees. When parking at the FBO, most crew members offer a generous tip to the driver for transporting us to the terminal. To get more specific information, maybe post the base your looking at and someone on this board might have better information.

I would like to know about Atlanta.

Atlantic Aviation on a (parking) space available basis. Tip generously and be nice.

I was told probably a September class but no hard date was given.

So, if I commercial out of KATL I can park at the FBO and get a ride over to the main terminal? Or do I have to park at one of the lots? What if I fly out of Peachtree or one of the other airports can I park at the FBO and leave my car there for seven days? Thanks for the info I have not flown on the corp/frac side before.

Atlantic for ATL. It is space available but I have never been denied. Sometimes it is tight in the Fall and Winter when the Hawks and Thrashers park their expensive cars there but still I have never had a problem. ATL will be your base. If you are sent to PDK the company will provide you transportation to and/or from ATL to PDK or any of the satelite airports. If you live north of or near PDK you can park at Epps and ride MARTA to ATL which will save you a litlle gas and if you happen to pass through PDK or end yor tour there, you will have wheels.

I think everybody pretty much tips five bucks each way at ATL so that will work out to about 20 bucks a month for parking. I don't know what guys give to the Epps drivers at PDK.

If you live on the northside, PDK is listed as a base. They would provide transport to/from ATL if you airlined at the start/end of your tour. Might get you an after midnight occasionally.

For NJ PDK is a base for CS it is not!
