Here is the kicker...are you getting crew rest?

Meaning, are you taking your Backend deviation flight less than 8 hours from when you landed on your FDX flight? If YES, then you can qualify for First Class and claim that you are waving crew rest and traveling same duty period. If NO, then block has to be OVER 5+00 to qualify for First.

At least this has been my experience in the past.


ON A SIDE NOTE - - - There is NO such thing as a stupid question...Only stupid people that ask questions!
