Remember that is a minimum of 10 hours in the hotel room.

Personally, when they have tried this with me, I set the clock ticking for 9 hours to wake up/10 til pickup when the last crew member gets the room key.

Crew scheduling tend to forget this gem, so a telephone call to them is required to delay the wake up call otherwise you will get less than minimum rest as they only count one hour before the flight as reporting time, where as most pickup times are two hours before the flight.

Working on 12:45 rest.

Blocks on,
30 mins to get off the plane,
45 mins to get thru customs, transit to the hotel
15 mins to check full crew in.

That 1:30 already.

Start the 10 hours.

Pick up 11:30 later, 2 hours before flight as usual.

Take off 13:30 later!
