Just about all of my playtime is when I'm travelling, so longer dates are what I prefer. I love to take a lady out for a nice dinner. I've never asked for a one hour date. It's usually three or four.

Longer......................less often.......................................

I can see where your schedule makes this difficult.  I only have weekends to play.  So I usually book 1 1/2 to 2 hrs. (longer with some). I just find the time much more relaxed, non rushed, and enjoyable.  Also, the way many ladies tier their rates as the date length increases, it just makes more sense.  Works for me, as I tend to repeat with ladies I enjoy, rather than do a lot of experimenting.  This is just the way I play the game......YMMV  LOL

If I become a regular, I stay two hours.  One hour is not long enough.

I see a lady; unless of course, the rate structure is such that it makes sense to book 90 minutes or 2 hr.  In that case, I research further, including a phone call, to be more certain that we will be compatable.

For repeat dates, I will usually schedule a minimum of 90 minutes and up to ... (depends on the rate structure again).  

Like others, I have limited time to get away and usually hobby when traveling for work.  My discretionary funds are somewhat reduced right now as well.

Quality experiences are preferred as compared to more frequent visits.

I am a guy who really enjoys feeling a special connection when I visit a lady.  Because of this, I tend to repeat often with the same lady when I feel that connection.  

Like all the other guys, I would always prefer longer sessions.  Unfortunately, with the lady I have been seeing most often lately, I have an hour and a half drive each direction when I see her which limits the amount of time I am able to spend with her.  

Since I am only able to get away during the day, I am limited by the total amount of time I am able to be gone which determines how much time I am able to spend with her each session.

Less than 2 hours just seems a waste to me.
I enjoy the time to relax and spend real quality time together.
Scheduling isn't usaually a problem because I have always scheduled my visits many days and weeks in advance , so I can rearrange my work schedule around my visits.

I have flown across the country to see someone. I have driven 4 hours, one way, to spend a few hours with someone. And I have driven 12 hours, one way, to spend a couple of days with someone very special.

If she is someone I am very interested in, I will find the time and find a way to get to her.

Just my opinion...

I've found that an hour is just too short and as others have said there is usually a break with 1.5 or 2 hr.

I also like doing dinner dates, especially with visiting ladies.  Can often be very reasonable as they usually like longer dates when traveling and I always am sure to take them to a nice/special place.

If I'm traveling, I like overnights.  Can be especially good if going to a M&G when you consider what a room might cost.

It's always tough to balance the schedule, but seems to me that it's all about the whole experience...I'll also admit that I do like to talk a bit more than I probably should...

In the end, my preference and usual approach is to book more time rather than less...I've been tight at times where only one hour worked, but I've never even considered anything less than that....

I usually book 2-hr dates. I'd book longer dates if I could, but being on a budget I can do about 1 2-hr date per month.  I've tried 1-hr dates in the past, but it just seems to rushed and awkward, especially for a first date with a lady. I tend to be a bit shy when I meet someone for the first time, so 2 hrs gives us plenty of time to get to know each other a bit, as well as plenty of playtime.
