1) Get management to contact whoever runs the space to expand the crewroom for this purpose. Bear in mind, it may not be there, the space that is.
Yes - this would require investment. If there isn't space you may have to carve it out. That is what we did.

2) It will cost money. Why would management want to spend that money? Or, make the existing crewroom smaller t partition it for a quiet area. If you've seen some crewrooms, there are already small enough. Trying to ensure the area is actually quiet enough to get rest is whole other issue. The crewroom in my domicile has a "quiet" area next to the regular area, it's not so quiet.
See above answer. If there gets to be enough pressure - it may be the most logical step. Why did the military give up the space and foot the bill for the extra air conditioned tent? Like I said - investment.

3) You have to trust the pilots to take care of the area, or have somebody manage/take care of the area. Again, why would management want this additional cost? As far as trusting pilots, most can be responsible, many can not. Somebody is going to screw it up and ruin the privilege for everybody else. This kind of thing happens ALL THE TIME.
LIke many of the signs say around our spaces. Clean up after yourself. A little self-discipline and self-policing will go along way. Who is going to clean it should be be an insurrmountable problem for a bunch of "professionals"
From earlier posts - it sounds like some airlines alreay do this. I'm glad.
