Just an innocent question, have you flown in a bizjet? We would augment a crew ONLY on a empty leg. There’s not enough room to get any useful rest with pax in a Sovereign. Even in a Global or a Gulfstream, the crew rest area is next to the galley, so noise is an problem. The Gulfstream 550 has a origami like fold up forward lav which is another distraction. Frankly, having done it, a 11-hour bizjet is perfect, one duty period, go to bed in a hotel. If the pax want to continue on—fine have a fresh crew in place.
