Flights see pilots and cabin crew working for many hours on long hauls trips. A Qantas pilot has revealed where crew go when they need to sleep during these flights. The secret location is somewhere many passengers would have no clue to look. First Officer Rob Noonan showed in a video where hidden bedrooms can be found on the new Qantas 787 Dreamliner plane.

The aircraft operates such long routes as the flight between Perth and London.
Consequently, crew need somewhere to sleep during the lengthy 17-hour journey.
There are separate secret bedrooms for both a pilot and cabin crew located above the flight deck.
Rob said in a video clip: "It's important to get adequate rest in the cruise so we have a little secret crew rest area, which is hidden in the ceiling above the flight deck.
"Pilots have a one bedroom apartment up the front [and] down the back there are two bedrooms for the cabin crew."
The footage shows the compact beds which are equipped with mattresses, pillows and blankets.
