Space available to stand
Changing area

Cost to modify crew rest area too expensive and Airbus refuses to modify.

Again this is from my memory, I may have missed something or made an error. What I can tell you that I remember perfectly clear. The management counterparts of the CROC committee that traveled with them to study the 350 crew rest area was 100% in agreement with ALPA that the 350 crew rest area wasn't 117 compliant.
