It isn't weird if the time to the airport plus plan through security check is tight. I usually prefer waking up earlier and have reduced the time waiting at the gate. In a lot of travel over the years, I've done it with business trips a few times. Hotel costs can be high near airports but when someone else is paying and is only a change in hotel it makes a lot of sense. It's about money for convenience usually.





No that is smart if you have the bucks to do it. We flew to Europe once from Los Angeles and we stayed overnight on the East Coast. It made it a lot easier.





No, its not weird. In fact lots of people do it. Especially if you live far away from the airport, or you have an early flight, or if its an international flight where you may need more time for security and the consequences of missing a flight would be more severe
