[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC to San Diego flights can be found for $300 round trip.  Car rentals for that time can be under $100.  So we’re talking $400 (which is probably close to OP’s per diem) for his wife’s happiness.  If she has a car it’s irrelevant where the restaurants are in relation to the hotel.

What I’m getting from OP’s posts is that he really likes his work trips and has no interest in wife joining him for whatever reason that he hasn’t actually admitted to yet.  And he’s looking for any excuse (too much money, waste of vacation days, childcare issues, where hotel is isolated, wife will complain about early morning noise) to convince himself that he’s right by him not wanting her there.

If he actually just admits he doesn’t want her there because he doesn’t want her around I think things would be a lot easier but then he’d have to admit there’s something fatally wrong in his marriage overall.  I’d bet if he was single and dating he’d jump on that person accompanying him in a heartbeat.  [/quote]

Not when I am traveling.  Or more accurately, not on the flights I am taking.  For work travel, I take the flights that work best for my schedule:  non-stop, and most convenient  time.  It is more like 600 not 1000.  But, we would need to rent two cars, which would have to be in San Diego, since there are no car rentals near the destination.

With that said, she back off on coming on the trip.  She wanted to go to San Diego.  I am staying the first and last night in San Diego, and she did not look past that.  I do go to San Diego frequently.
