CrewRest Ops is the fastest way to plan inflight rest for pilots and cabin crew on long-haul operations. No spreadsheets, no mental math — just enter your cruise start and end times in UTC and get a precise, fair rest distribution for every crew member onboard. Whether you're flying with 2, 3, or 4 pilots, or coordinating cabin crew rotations, CrewRest Ops takes care of the splits, the order, and the timing so you can focus on the flight. — KEY FEATURES — • 2, 3, and 4-Pilot Modes Standard, augmented, and double crew configurations with operationally correct rest splits. • Cabin Crew Rotations Plan rest blocks for sobrecargos and full cabin teams. • UTC-First Design Built around how crews actually think and operate. Enter raw HHMM values with the dedicated keypad. • Custom Rest Configurations Adjust percentages, reorder rest blocks, and tailor the plan to your operation or duty regulations. • Visual Timeline See the full cruise period at a glance, color-coded by crew member and block type. • Live UTC Clock Always-visible UTC time in the toolbar so you stay synchronized with dispatch and ATC. • Wake-Up Notifications Set local alerts so you never miss the end of your rest block. • Liquid Glass Interface A modern, dark cockpit-friendly design that's easy on the eyes during night flights. • iPhone & iPad Optimized Adaptive layout with a persistent keypad on iPad for fast, repeated planning. — BUILT BY A CREW MEMBER, FOR CREW MEMBERS — CrewRest Ops was designed by an active aviation professional to eliminate the small frustrations of rest planning. It's not a regulatory tool — it's a practical assistant that handles the math so the crew can rest properly and arrive ready. CrewRest Ops does not collect personal data. Everything stays on your device.
