Typical travelling schedule for a WWE wrestler
Always wondered what kind and how much traveling a WWE Superstar does. How often does he/she get home? Is it more flights or rental cars? Are they expected to cover travel and hotel costs themselves, or are these costs included in their contractual benefits?

I have no real idea but Mark Henry, Big Show and Alberto Del Rio flew for 27 hours from South Africa to Boston to make it in time for Raw this last week.

The longest flight I've ever been on was no more than 2 hours. Honestly couldn't imagine flying for 27 hours!!! (I'm assuming this includes stops, but still a long time!)

Just look at the schedules for the week..... I imagine it'll mostly be rental cars as most of the time, they tour the same area in the week (i.e. Tampa, Ft. Lauderdale, Miami, Jacksonville in Florida) then they'd probably fly home for their off days and then fly to the first town of the loop of the next week....

RAW crew works Thursday/Friday through Monday, Smackdown Friday/Saturday through Tuesday with occasional media appearances/signings etc scattered throughout. Rental cars/hotels etc are paid for by performers unless it's in their deals although some of the more "well off" guys have taken to getting tour buses, flights are paid for by the company. Your Cena's, Orton's etc fly 1st class.

the McMahon's and their guests/family members, the corporate guys, writers, on-screen guys/agents that need to get from A to B quickly for whatever reason/that have transport messed around because of weather/invited for a reason etc

In his interview with GQ, CM Punk suggests there's separate buses for heels and faces. Lol, who said kayfabe was a thing of the past?

Venis has probably been the most cushty of the lot for years. The guy probably only made 4 different travel arrangements that were work related since 2005.
