Canonical event record

What happened

The article states that FAA rest rules changed in October 2022, requiring at least 10 consecutive hours of rest after duty periods of up to 14 hours and removing the option to reduce rest.

Why it matters: Airline scheduling and disruption recovery depend on duty clocks, rest requirements and crew replacement rules; delays can force crews to time out and flights to be delayed or cancelled.
