Where do Pilots sleep on the Boeing 787 Dreamliner?
While the 787 Dreamliner is a great aircraft to operate ultra-long-range flights, humans aren’t designed particularly well to be in a pressurized tube for long periods of time.
The purpouse of the crew rest area is to ensure that the pilots who are flying the approach and landing are as fresh as they can possibly be.
On the Boeing 787, the rest area for the pilots is hidden away above first class, accessed by a hidden door. Depending on the airline, these are furnished with anything from a thin blanket and pillow to bedding from the first-class cabin. There is a control panel to control the temperature and a curtain to close off the foot end of each bed. The major advantage of the rest area is that once the lights are off, it really is quite dark and surprisingly quiet.
No matter how much sleep you managed during your rest period, when you arrive at the hotel, you are exhausted.
