TRAVEL DAYS:
All travel days within Canada are charged as half days unless travel exceeds 5 hours from call at airport to release at destination (hotel or home) in which case a full day applies.
All travel days to USA are charged as full days as this usually involves significant preparation and arrival at the airport as much as 3 hours prior to scheduled flight to deal with Customs issues.
All travel days to International destinations are charged as a full day PLUS any overtime incurred.
• Notwithstanding the above, any travel day where any work is to be performed (including location scouting) will be charged at a Full-Day rate regardless of day length. Overtime applies after 10+1 hours.
ACCOMMODATIONS:
For assignments necessitating an overnight stay the client will supply a standard 3-star or better hotel room close to the shoot location.
TRANSPORTATION:
I have a Canadian passport and am available to travel. For assignments requiring air travel the client is to supply one round-trip economy airfare from Toronto Pearson International (CYYZ) or Billy Bishop Airport (CYTZ) to the airport closest to the destination as well as ground transportation while in the destination. I prefer bulkhead/emergency exit seating as I am tall and these seats generally have more leg-room. I have a clean driving record, an International Driving License and can/will drive if requested. Carnet and all travel documentation and visas are to be arranged by the client. Air Canada is my preferred carrier. As an Elite Aeroplan member, I have a higher baggage allowance on Air Canada and members of the Star Alliance.
