Narrative:

I operated aircraft X and aircraft Y ZZZ-ZZZ1-ZZZ respectively. On both segments; the fcrf (flight crew rest facilities) did not have any pillows. We were told anecdotally; that due to covid pillows were not being boarded. While I understand that to be a passenger comfort/safety decision; I also believe that this may be in violation of far 117 and class 1 rest facility requirements.as a result; I did not obtain the rest I expected. I felt fatigued after my rest break.
