A non-stop flight from Mumbai to New York takes 15 hours approximately. That is a long, long flight.
Have you ever wondered where do the pilots and the flight attendants rest during such long hours? We have seen their allocated seats that look like this.
And the seats pilots sit on do not look really cozy either, even for a nap.
Turns out, they have a secret place they all go to rest which is right above your seats!
Here is what the secret staircase to the secret room looks like
There are 8 comfortable bunks on each plane, and they look good to spread your cramped legs on.
There are pillows and blankets too. Cozy!
And do not go by the schematic, because the place is big enough to chill out with your airplane homies.
They are so exclusive, they come with instructions.
And as you can see, the exclusive entry only place comes with instructions.
Thank god they have a place to rest, because a better-rested crew will mean better service.
And if you are reading this on a long haul flight and are panicking because now you think that your pilots are both asleep, worry not.
They cannot. They have controlled resting procedures.
But they can chill when they get too tired.
And chill good.
Flight thug life.
