Why are you people debating an EA that's been voted on and the vast majority have approved? Get over it. No one is forcing you to fly it.The 787 will not be flying between Mel and Per either according to the engineers I've spoken with. The aircraft will fly Mel- Lax-Bne-Per-Lhr and return the opposite way. Even though I'm in favour of a proper crew rest as per the award, look at what's just happened with penalty rates for the hospitality industry today. FWA, I bet will not be very sympathetic, unfortunately, to a revised crew rest as stipulated in the EA. The precedent has already been set by other operators using the standard crew rest. Not right but realistic.
