Are people actually flying providers to them?

[DMonDude]

I see a lot of RentMen providers in particular who's ads say passport ready and ready to travel to you (particularly referring to being flown out to a clients state or other country). Is this something a lot y'all are actually doing frequently? Flying a favorite provider out to you from cross country or taking them on international travel with you? Am i just too much of a peasant to comprehend this? What are the logistics of flying someone out and putting them up in a hotel? Do you give them the flight/hotel money so they can book it? Or do they have to give you all their personal info so you can book it for them? How does that work?

Great question.  We’ll also get to find out who on this site has the really big bucks!

Here are a few poignant discussions on hiring an escort to travel to you and hiring an escort to travel together.  Use the handy Search 🔍 feature at the top of the page and search by "Travel" in "titles only":

I've considered hiring an escort to travel with me on a cruise, and will likely do so soon.

[savantsav]

Yeah. I've tried locally in LA and the quality leaves a lot to be desired. On a trip to NY I met a provider that delivered on everything to the T and more so I suggested he come to LA and I flew him from NY to LA on Business and put him on a hotel in Beverly Hills for a few days and we had an overnight and a few sessions while he was here. So yes, some of us do for quality providers. 

As for logistics, when we agreed on dates we checked NY-LA flights and agreed on flight ($1500), I venmo/zelled it and had him book it. For Hotel, I booked it and added him to the reservation (yes, I knew his government name) so when he arrived he checked in no problem.

Of personal friends I know Adrian Serdar has a sugar daddy who flies him almost weekly from Prague to Amsterdam and pays $1500 for a couple hours same day almost every week and Roald Ekberg has a similar one in Brussels. There are clients in Bangkok and Singapore who regularly fly guys there from EU for days or weeks at a time. But most of the guys list various "visiting" cities as a lure to get enough clients to make money there and are thrilled to be flown to a new city to try and get regulars in. What kills me is the pics some post from international  business class a client has gotten them......wtf....the extra cash would impress them more.

I once flew a provider from LA to Honolulu to join me for a week's vacation.  We agreed upon an airfare allowance which I sent to him and he purchased his own tickets.  He stayed in my hotel room.  The only downside was having to carry a lot of cash to Honolulu to pay him (this was pre-app days).  It was the best vacation I've ever had.  

The cities I live in have a large pool of providers and they also attract travelers so I've never flown anyone to my home.

Yeah that was mentioned in Adrian's thread on LPSG but I didn't know it was still ongoing.

[Cretus]

I’m curious, @DMonDude- are you a provider or a client? I only ask because your posts have a sort of provider feel to them.

I live in NYC, where there are ample choices with a continuous inflow of new talent. We are spoiled rotten here.  I have never flown anyone from abroad or other parts of the country into NYC.

I could see why it makes sense for someone who lives in a remote part of the country with very little, if any, local talent.

[+ KensingtonHomo]

My husband and I have debated taking a provider we've been seeing for a while to Provincetown with us. But, I wouldn't want it to be for the entire trip. We've held off because that might be weird. 

[big-n-tall]

Yes. It’s not frequently but maybe a few times a year one of my regulars I bring to me or we go somewhere together. I see him 2 to 3 times a year. I’d probably see him more but he’s on the other side of the country from me.

I’ve also been on extended get togethers with other regulars and went on trips.

Mind you this only a small number of guys I’ve gone to, brought to me, or we went somewhere together. Also these guys for whatever reasons don’t ask for their usual ongoing overnight rate. Probably because I’ve known them a few years or much longer and they seem to enjoy my company. I guess I get a returnee discount rate. The guy I see the most decreased the rate multiple times over the years. The guy I like the most doesn’t travel so I have to go see him. I would love to see him more and go on trips together but it’s not in the cards… for now.

By no means am I rich but manage my funds well.

You want the provider to arrive well rested, don’t you?

[Cretus]

I’ll answer the question anyway. Yes, I fly people out to NYC somewhat frequently- especially when I get an idea from members here and reviews on RM that they are trustworthy and won’t run away with the deposit I pay them.

Those individuals, aside from being exceptionally aesthetically, must also have excellent personalities.

I have regular guys who I fly out at this point. It’s obviously a position of privilege, and not many people have the means to do this.

I’ve been flown in for sure.   I have a client in Florida who flies guys in all the time.  

You get on a 6am flight to Florida and uber to the hotel.  There’s a key waiting for you at the front desk.  He arrives a bit later for a session.  Then he goes back to work.  You hang out in a hotel room alone for a couple hours.  He returns for session #2.   Repeat.  He leaves.  Uber to the airport and fly home that evening. 

It’s a long exhausting day, but lucrative.  

I don’t think his issue is lack of local talent. I think he specifically gets off on the FMTY aspect of it.  It makes him feel like a high roller. 

[JoeHonolulu]

I spend about half my time in Hawai’i, and honestly options here are pretty limited. Every now and then we get some travelers passing through, but sometimes I’ll fly in a couple of my favorite guys I’ve met while working on the mainland. Makes things way easier and definitely worth it.

Maybe you could do a thing where you take the provider to the trip, agree on a certain amount of time he's hired to spend with you and your husband but then he has to go back home. I feel like he'd probably understand that you'd want some just you and your husband time on the trip. Or maybe it'd be a thing where he goes with you but then you only agree to hire him for 2 out of 4 nights or whatever and those other nights he gets his own hotel room that he can work out of since he wouldn't be on the clock with you those nights. Then he flies back to your home city with you guys?

I'm solely a client, but I'm fairly close with some of the providers i hire and they tell me about what things are like from their perspective and in doing this i try to operate in a way that takes their perspective into my own. I also work in a field that has a few broad similarities to providing, so i can relate to some of the struggles from the business side of it.

Can relate to both of these in a way. I hire most often in L.A. and we have a TON of guys here, but MANY of them all have a certain typical "L.A. Look" in my opinion (which is ok, just can be repetitive sometimes). So i sometimes find myself very interested in guys from other places who travel here. And i'm super lucky i'm in a town that has both a ton of guys but also still attracts a lot of traveling providers. So it's really best of both worlds. So i really can't complain, but every once in a while i see some of the guys in certain U.S. states that don't travel who are super hot and a few I've thought about flying them to L.A. Doing so is a bit out of my price range if doing it on short notice though, but i could maybe do it if i planned it in advance and thoughtfully put the funds for it aside over time.

[GentJ]

I've only been doing this for a few weeks and already been reached out to quite a bit for these types of gigs. It seems crazy to me too, but it seems to be a thing.

Yep pretty much the quality isn't there in LA for the most part for what I'm into. I KNOW there are some really good guys, and some who even browse these forums but are not my type. Unfortunately those who end up being my type show up high as fuck, can't perform or just ghost/no show. So when I saw this provider in NY and had a mindblowing time I had no qualms in flying him to LA.

Echoing this logistic. Exactly what I been doing. Not necessarily an economical mode of hiring but often most convenient. Also to provide uber fare from and to airport. 

Always add him on the the reservation for smooth logistics.

it’s not the case any more. I have tested my entire wishlist and now am done with NYC. Prob time to move to London :)))))

 

some London guys asked GPB 5k+ (~$7k) + flight tickets for an overnight in NYC. 

[+ DrownedBoy]

Once. It wasn't worth the extra money.

[+ PhileasFogg]

I’ve probably done it 10 times this year and at least three times with 2-3 guys on the trip.  It’s not hard.   You just have to write down the details to keep up with them. 

[OneTeal]

No but I have flown ~myself~ out to a city I don't live in just to see providers. 😅

There's a few of us who used to fly to Prague and hotel for a week to see "Velvety" (a model/pro hockey player) every day for a week because he would not travel. Now he lives in VietNam.

I think this is more the norm. Meet the provider first in person and see if there's chemistry etc. Once you know that provider is amazing, then arrange something else like a trip, etc.

I don't know of any friends who have blindly flown a provider without meeting him in person first but am sure there are others who have done this.
