I have some thoughts

It's been said that Las Vegas is nice this time of year.  Given that ABQ rates are lower, it would be cool to bump them by about $50/hr.  I know a guy there that's easy to screen that's waiting for your arrival.  ***ME***

But a little birdie already mentioned that to you, or so I've heard.

The first is the need to cover your cost of travel and hotel.  Some cities, like NYC, are quite expensive, so you'll want to add something, others are not so bad but it may depend on the time of year.  (For example, Boston is not too bad except that in the fall, the rates go sky high.)

The second is to try and match your rates to gals who work in the city who are more or less your equal in looks and services.

I know it's a long schlep, but if Boston is usually very friendly to visitors.

They post on the local board of the city they're contemplating visiting to get a feel for how much interest there might be. The problem of course is that sometimes guys don't follow through on their promises, so you are taking a chance of not covering expenses. It's a gamble I suppose, but if you get a few new good clients out of it you may reap some longer term dividends. Maybe tour a city you would like to vacation in even if you weren't working.

Re: Some thoughts on touring ladies. First, . . .

do research on the area you are contemplating travel.  What do other ladies charge?  Are there other traveling ladies in the area (regional board should help by looking for their ads) or does it appear to be a dead zone?

Put out a feeler (no pun intended) about 6 weeks out.  If there is enough interest, plan the trip and do the weekly ad post.  

Southwest has reasonably priced flights to many cities.  If for some reason you don't make the trip, the $ from the flight can be used up to a year later as a credit for another flight.  No, I don't work for them.  

I'm guessing that you will pick up more dates the closer your trip gets.  Sure, some guys might cancel, put you have continued to stay on the radar of guys who are hoping to see you but have difficulty in arranging around work.

BTW, there are non-stop flights from ABQ to Florida.

PM if you want more info.

Re: When you take the plunge...

be sure to put San Francisco on your list of cities to visit.
