Southwest Charter

[BuffaloJoe]

There is a local travel agency here uses Southwest as their cahrter airline. These are Orlando charters, 1 week they go from Harrisburg, another week from Reading and another week from Wilkes Barre/Scranton. its a Sunday -Saturday stay in Orlando so The plane that flies the people home to Harrisburg on a saturday night then continues on after the passengers deplane travels to Reading. It gets in Reading about midnight then it starts it travels to Orlando about 6am.

My question here is, does the crew stay with the plane or are they put up at a local hotel for those 6 hours?

They go to the hotel...

Sometimes MX from MCO rides with the aircraft. They usually have a hotel for the ride along as well.

i know every once in a while a SWA boeing usually takes military troops from ABE to MCI i believe it is. not often it happens but a few months back they took troops and the plane looked to be a 737-700 with winglets bent upwards.
