This is an old revision of the document!
This functionality applies to the Operators which have below regulation included in OM-7 regarding Rest at Home Base:
Minimum rest period away from home base during a rotation which includes a rest period at a crew member’s home base may be applied only if the crew member does not rest at his/her residence, or temporary accommodation, because the Airline provides suitable accommodation. This type of roster is known as “back-to-back operation”.
It is now possible to mark if the hotel (read: suitable accommodation) was used during the crew rest at Home Base. This will then equal rest period at Home Base to the one outside Home Base.
Applying it is quite easy:
'Add hotel' will recalculate the rest at Home Base and equal the minimum required to the value of min rest required outside Home Base, subject to preceding duty being shorter than min rest at Home Base.
After it is applied, the Rest figure in 'Duty & FDP Sectors' will be highlighted yellow and 'Hotel provided' information will display upon hovering the mouse.
Below are 2 examples of calculations including 'Add hotel' function:
