Rest period for Flight attendants is predetermined by the aviation regulatory authorities for long and ultra long flights.
Refer to Flight time limitations of various regulatory bodies.
Their rest is based on the time duration of the flight - Some amount of rest that must be taken before the flight and some rest to be done after the flight.
Also , the rest on board is decided on the basis of the length of flight and destination..like a transatlantic flight.
Well, its about safety of hundreds of people on board, the crew must take adequate rest before the flight, on board(as per standards) and post flight too.
Some Airlines are very particular about the rest period of crew members and ensure through their own internal procedures that crew is taking the mandate rest….
The life of crew members is tough…we all know….but many do not know that their time at home is also not much at their discretion…they have to give time to their bodies to recoup after a flight and then do things of their choice…
