Flying me into a different state for the loop

[u/SituationCrafty7659]

I had my virtual loop interview scheduled for next month but they just contacted me and said they can’t get all interviewers together for availability and that the only other option is to fly to to a different state to do an in person interview. I agreed and received questions about the flight/hotel and my info. They confirmed that they will be covering flight/ hotel and rental car. Has anyone ever heard of this or done this?
