The new regulation introduces the concept of a "home base" for granting aircrew members access to social security rights. The home base is where pilots and cabin crews "normally start and end a duty period" and "where the operator is not responsible for the accommodation of the crew member".

As I have said elsewhere... if, instead of bleating on Pprune, European based crew took the time to read the legal aspects, particularly about days off and leave, contained in the EASA regs, they may well learn something to their advantage...
