Seriously, you would be surprised at the number of individuals who think that more "rest" hours in a road hotel is some sort of "victory feather" in the rest cap.
If you'll pardon the pun, you can "rest" assured that more time on the road for more rest and the same pay is going to translate to less time at home on an annual basis.
We'll just have to wait and see how it all works out.
We all know about the law of unintended consequences. However, this isn't a bill to protect qol, but simply about pilots getting real adequate rest. It's up to us in our contracts to protect qol. Lord, help us please.
