The reason being that I doubt that after flying all night from Canada that they have the same crew push on to the next city.

At least I hope that they don't have the pilots doing that. Especially if I was onboard.

Maybe they are doing it like the DEL run with extra crew on board and rest periods during the flt. Elapsed time to EZE via SCL is under 15 hours I think. Who knows what logic they use?
