Crew hotels

A hotel can be the right call for a first trip, a short stay, or a base with no public crashpad listing yet. We don't list specific hotels or rates on this page.

When a hotel makes more sense

A crashpad is usually cheaper by the month, but a hotel can be the practical choice when:

  • It's your first trip, or your first few trips, and you haven't locked a crashpad yet.
  • You'll only be in base a night or two, and a monthly pad doesn't pay.
  • The base has no public crashpad listing yet — those bases are listed below.
  • You want a private room and a front desk, and you're willing to pay more for that.

If you're still deciding, start with how to choose a crashpad. Short stays also overlap with short-term rentals.

How to look for a crew rate

We don't republish airline or union hotel lists here, because those lists change and we haven't independently confirmed each property for this page. In practice, crew usually check, in this order:

  • Your airline's travel or crew-hotel portal. Many carriers negotiate rates and list participating hotels there.
  • A union or association hotel list, when your union publishes one.
  • The hotel's own site, or the front desk, using any airline crew rate or code your company issued.

Confirm the rate, taxes, parking, and shuttle hours with the hotel before you book. Crew rates can change or disappear.

What this page does not list

We do not list hotel names, addresses, or rates on this page. Hotel inventories and crew rates change, and we will only add a property when we have a public source and a date we checked it. There is no booking or hotel-affiliate link here. If a listing on a base guide mentions a hotel in the crashpad's own name or copy, that wording comes from that crashpad's public page, not from a hotel directory we built.

FAQ

Crew hotels FAQ

When should I book a hotel instead of a crashpad?

A hotel is often the better fit for a first trip, a very short stay, or a base that has no public crashpad listing yet. A monthly crashpad usually costs less if you'll be in base often.

Do you list crew-rate hotels?

Not on this page. We don't list hotel names or rates until we have a public source and a date we checked it. Look first at your airline's crew-hotel portal, then any union list, then the hotel itself.

How do I find a crew rate?

Start with your airline's travel portal. If your union publishes a hotel list, use that next. Then confirm the rate, taxes, parking, and shuttle hours with the hotel before you book.
