4. EXAMPLES OF THE USE OF THESE RECOMMENDATIONS
Applying Recommendations in Airbus FANS flight on A340 in 2000
Applying Recommendations at Sabena on A340 in 2001
These examples consider the following criteria that you have to adapt to fit your rotation:
– duration of flight: 8 hours for long range flight with basic crew and 12 hours for very long flights with augmented crew,
– time zone: 0 for NSR, + 6 for long-range flights, + 8 for very long-range flights range;
– departure time from home or hotel is set 2hours30 before flight departure time: 1 hour for the transfer from home or hotel to the airport and 1hours30 for the preparation of the flight,
– the arrival time to the hotel is set 1hours 30 after landing: 30 minutes to complete the flight tasks and 1 hour for the transfer from the airport to the hotel.
To illustrate the use of these criteria, the table below shows an example of the main characteristics, and the corresponding recommendation codes, for a westward rotation (BT-8) with augmented crew and longer layover (4 local nights). Flight duration is 12 hours.

Departure from home: 8h30 BT
