Is getting a last ride on Marine-1 a courtesy extended by the incoming President?

[Aviation Pro]

After the swearing in ceremony or is it part of the out processing package for an ex-President?

Asking for a friend.

1. I'm pretty sure it's a courtesy. You should tell your friend to make the other guy take an Uber. NT

14. That's correct. Nixon and Jr. Bush were both grateful for it.

2. It's probably a traditional last perk.

They fly you to Andrews, you get on a plane, they dump you at your home of record, and you're on your own.

Except for the Presidential pension, Secret Service protection for life, free lunch with dignitaries around the world for life, a staggeringly lucrative Presidential book deal, periodic "Here's What Former President X Is Up To These Days" magazine articles, etc.

10. There are no longer norms or traditions that need to be honored.

Trump has ignored them. His shit should be put on the curb and he should be left to make his own arrangements.

3. courtesy... Something Trump would never offer had the situations been reversed.

[Gothmog]

4. Yes

there is no way that trump will be at Biden's inauguration and so this will not matter. If trump was there, I susptect that Joe would extend this courtesy

5. strictly speaking, i think it wouldn't be "marine one" if president biden weren't also on it

[cwydro]

6. This.

Yup.

8. Technically correct

But it's still the same tail number. The official call sign is Executive One.

13. thanks, this wiki explains it:

"executive one" is used if the sitting president flies a non-military aircraft, and, apparently, when the outgoing president flies what would normally be known as "marine one" if the sitting president were on it.

so it's still a "presidential" courtesy to call it "executive one" when the outgoing president is on it.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_One

The military helicopter that normally has the call sign "Marine One" is assigned the "Executive One" call sign when it transports the outgoing president on their final flight from the Capitol, after the inauguration of their successor, as was done on January 20, 2009 for George W. Bush and on January 20, 2017 for Barack Obama.

7. Do what Trump does to those he ejects, abandon them on the airport tarmac 1K miles from home.

9. It's a secret service ex-President thing

It isn't a courtesy provided by in the incoming president

I don't think Nixon was around for Ford's swearing in...

[lagomorph777]

15. Ford granted Nixon the courtesy to fly out in M1

[Vinca]

11. They should haul his orange ass away in a golf cart.

[lagomorph777]

16. In the back of a cop car. In cuffs.

[Buns_of_Fire]

12. I believe it's a courtesy. Pushing his fat ass out while over the Potomac is a bonus. nt

[jmowreader]

17. It might be...

...but in this case, I'd tell the fat fuck he has his own helicopter that he was planning to use as the presidential heli before the Secret Service told him no to the hell, and that he can either use it or walk.
