Spouse on the overnight?

[Palerider957]

You're kidding, right? The 1200 hour King of Cherokees is going to lecture an airline captain on professionalism? Tell ya what kid, when you learn to find your ass with two hands in an airliner, then you'll be entitled to an opinion on such matters. Until then, get back to your bug smashing and leave the fuel decisions to us.

And by the way, in your profile, the Beech B58 is spelled B-A-R-O-N, not Barron. Dummy.[/quote


Agreed.

You know what would really suck? Bringing the Mrs. along, and the FAs get lit (or not) and tell her about you extracurricular activities with other FAs.

Something to the effect of:

"Yeah, your man is riding Julie C. on the PDX overnights" or something like that.

WTF!!

My girlfriend's name is Julie C.

 

[SSDD]

WTF!!

My girlfriend's name is Julie C.

Is she doing PDX overnights?

 

[urflyingme?!]

Nah she switched a few weeks ago when she heard I was doing ORF

 

[aussieflyboy]

Lol... nah she's not a flight attendant, keep dreaming fellas crazy coincidence that you'd choose her name tho!

I have seen others who bring their wife on an overnight. The few times I have seen it, once we arrive at the destination the wife usually just takes the hotel van with us. If its a big Airport I think she leaves early to go through security on the way back. In any event I was thinking of doing this. I'm just curious if the Hotel cares one way or the other. I dont think the guys I flew with made any prior arrangements. Has anyone done this or know what the norm is? Thanks

To answer the original question, it depends upon transportation between the hotel and the airport.

If it's hotel provided transportation, most often, there isn't a problem. If it's a contract limo, it can become a problem. I had this happen years ago. Our F/A was a commuter from our layover city and went home. The limo service contracted with our company to transport three crew members to and from XYZ hotel. The drive taking us to the hotel was cool with my wife riding in with us. He explained the potential problem during the drive in.

The next day, a different driver from the same limo service, refused to take my wife with us. We told him our F/A wasn't coming because she was local. He was adamant and wouldn't take my wife. The captain took the limo and we took a cab.

Fly safe!

Not very professional, was it!
Here we are everyone on this board bashes the management of each airline, but when it comes to 'their' fuel...yep, I'd rather have my spouse on board and burn fuel for nothing.

How can you expect your employer to treat you well if you do not care about treating 'them' right.

Ever heard of integrity?

Bunny,

Who let you out of the kitchen again? uke:

Too funny man! Thanks for making my morning!

Silly me, and here I thought the industry was already treating pilots like crap. Which airline did you say your old man is in mgt. for?

So does that mean all we need is a little "integrity" to get back all the lost compensation? Maybe conducting ourselves with the utmost of integrity will cure all of aviations woes AND our paychecks.

Enjoy being a CFI honey.

Yes, I have been around those type of girls before, but I dont think that I would make one of them my wife.

Well that's your choice... or your loss, depending on one's point of view.

But - if you admittedly "like" women like that, but have a different standard for your wife, wouldn't that imply that you then are somewhat unstatisfied (eventually) after you get married?

And if you have such a double-standard, then what makes you think the chick who isn't into that would necessarily find you potential husband material? Not saying you couldn't find a woman like that, but chances are you would end up scewing around on her, and then there she is, wondering why (while she's taking your 2.5 kids, the house, the boat, and 1/2 your paycheck.)

I have met so many male pilots who are confused as to why everything happened like that for them. Just food for thought.

"Gee, Jim never bangs 2 women at a time in OUR bed..."

 

[siucavflight]

What?

wtf do you know about professional integrity? You fly a f#$%ing cherokee. You are an instructor. You probably spend endless hours circling the "practice area" and doing touch and goes while chatting with all your "pilot friends" on 123.45. You don't even know what it is he was talking about, do you? Throw your half a cent into the conversation when you fly something that burns more than 6 gallons an hour. You're on the wrong board, retard....and learn to spell before you come back, ya hear?

Wow, that was not very friendly. But I agree he was a tool.
