Long ago I flew for a fractional operator, our max duty day was 14 hours and min layover was 10 hours. The pilots had the ability to extend, on their own, 30 minutes, anything over that you had to call your program manager and explain to them why you feel it was safe to go the full 16 hours.
It was really different when I got here and you have to explain why you can’t go.
