On October 21st, our Component Officers issued a bulletin pertaining to the new service changes, reporting for duty, pre-flight and boarding safety checks and duties. If you missed that bulletin, please click HERE. The Component Crew Rest Committee would like to compliment the recent Component Officer’s bulletin by reminding the membership of your contractual onboard crew break and rest times.

Rest periods have been negotiated for long range flying and are as follows:
– B14 two (2) hours of rest

LOU18 four (4) hours of rest for a duty day 15:00hrs or greater

With the exception of (**) LOU28 flights of 7:01hrs-8:00hrs, the service specifications may need to be modified for crew to obtain their full contractual break/rest times. In such cases, the SD should submit an eOBR simply stating that the service sequence was modified so that the crew can obtain their contractual break/rest times.
In Solidarity,
Component Crew Rest Committee
