What's a legality checker?
- mannerheim 4y agoMy guess is it checks whether their shifts are compliant with labour laws.
- anovikov 4y agoThese aren't labour laws strictly speaking, more like airline safety laws. I.e. they aren't about well-being of employees but safety of planes operated by overworked crews.
- adastra22 4y agoWell they are about the well being of the employees. That’s just not the ultimate justification for it—rested employees mean safe flights.
- sidewndr46 4y agoThey are labor laws. They restrict the exchange of labor for income.

- dopamean 4y agoMy guess is that it has something to do with whether or not a trip can be legally flown by an airline employee given the amount of hours of flying time they already have clocked for a given period.
- toomuchtodo 4y agoChecks if the airline scheduler is complying with duty limits. Trust but verify. "14 CFR § 121.467 - Flight attendant duty period limitations and rest requirements: Domestic, flag, and supplemental operations." https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/121.467 https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/14/121.467
- shagie 4y agoI believe - making sure that they're not working too many flights back to back. This can get tricky when flying across time zones and date lines.
