    Azure Standard will fly you home. It is driver touch freight. I heard a driver who worked there say the pay was good.

    I'm thinking you can just take a load up there for home time if you can find somewhere to park. Call em up on Monday and see if they'll hire you from your domicile.

    Centerline has a Jet Set division where they fly you various locations for 4-6 weeks then fly you home, then fly you to another location where they need help. I know they pay by the hour, something like high $20's to low $30's per hour depending on the type of trailer you can haul and endorsements.

    I have also seen a company advertising out of Ohio from time to time that does that, but I can't find their Indeed ad at the moment. But they want the truck parked at one of their terminals and fly you home (or rents a car if it's close to home). You keep the same truck and you don't slip-seat, but it has to be parked at a terminal. If I see it again, I'll post a link.

    Active and Iron Tiger both are union driveaway companies. They will fly you from truck to truck and home, but you have to travel very light because you are driving the truck to deliver it to the end user or a dealership. Sleep in hotels every night and no smoking, drinking or eating in the trucks, plastic on the seats and leave it clean when you park it. Mostly brand new trucks, plenty of piggy-back deck sets. A lot of rental car and Uber travel as well as airplanes.

    Make sure you are getting on with a union driveaway company so you are a W2 employee as most driveaway companies hire 1099 contractor and you have to cover all the expenses, so flying eats up all your profit. There are a few others but these two are the biggest I know of and treat their drivers the best, at least as far as driveaway transport goes.

    Most of the fly home type jobs involve a lot of slip seating. In addition to Schneider, JB Hunt has a few dedicated accounts that will do the same, as well as a few other fly home type gigs mentioned by others in this thread.

    Look into Ryder flex driver positions, many pay 2-3k weekly & they’ll fly you home. Usually 2-3weeks out, varies
