Summary

Airline Flight Crew Technical Corrections Act - Amends the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 with respect to hours-of-service requirement airline flight crews must meet to be eligible for leave under such Act.

Declares that a flight attendant or flight crewmember will be considered to meet such requirement if he or she has worked or been paid for: (1) 60% of the applicable monthly guarantee, or the equivalent annualized over the preceding 12-month period; and (2) a minimum of 504 hours during such period.

Authorizes the Secretary of Labor to provide, by regulation, a method for calculating such leave for airline flight crews.
