I live a hour and fifteen minutes from the airport. Usually get up at 3:00 for a 7:00 AM flight on Mondays, returning Thursday’s. Tried an 8:00 PM flight today arriving after connection at midnight. Delayed until 1:20. So is going to bed at 2:00 and better than getting up at 3:00? 🤷🏼♀️ Leaving Wednesday night though.
Why do you get up 4 hours before your Monday flight? You don’t need to leave for the airport until 4:45 or so, right?
Mine was:
11am flight on Sunday (leave home by 9-9:30am) West coast to east coast.
Monday or Tuesday - at least 1 all nighter.
Monday to Thursday - 13-16 hour days
8pm flight on Thursday. East coast to west coast.
12 hour day Friday and 5-10 hours Saturday work.
Rinse. Repeat.
Needless to say I left.
Quit for more money and zero travel.
6pm Monday 8pm Thursday. 😊
I do a 9:30am departure and 5:30pm return
~6-7am monday, 6-7pm Thursday
Latest possible Sunday departure, and after 5 on Thursday
West coast from nyc so 1pm Monday and 9pm red eye Wednesday night.
6:30/7 on Monday; takeoff 4-6pm on Thursday. I try to fly Tuesday mornings when meetings allow
6 am Monday, 6:30 pm Thursday
I book 7 am Monday and return last flight or around 5 pm. I will change my return to an earlier flight if I do not have any afternoon meetings on Thursday.
Mine varies almost every week, in 8 years I’ve only had a consistent travel schedule for about 6 months
4 PM Monday, 1 PM Thursday
7 am flight, 2-3 return
Do all of you still work a full day Friday? Or are Friday’s more relaxed and you don’t have to come in.
I work all day Friday, but don’t have to come into the office. In my experience the “Friday’s are relaxed and filled with extracurriculars” is just a lie they tell you during recruiting.
Think of it this way - when we sell a project we sell based on a full week of work, not 80% of work. So it’s rare that a project is scoped to allow this.
Depart 5:10am tomorrow and depart Friday after 5pm
You need to quit
3:50pm Sunday and 7:40pm Friday. 5.5 hour flight home 😫
Lol my own company as an independent consultant. Now ask me how many clients I have and my current bill rate for not traveling 6 days out of the week.
7:50 tomorrow and 7PM Thursday
6 am departure, 4 pm return
Coast to coast?
Varies by project
