I don't see how not having fancy chairs in the crew room makes any difference in regards to sitting around a crew room all day, hoping you don't get called. I totally understand the difference in regards to FDP limitations.

My company has started using DAA on the day after a standby callout. This then means that they can dispense with a 2-hour callout should someone be unable to report for a flight and then there is a crew member already at the airport ready to go.
