Here is a sample of what reserve schedules look like for those going to ANC as new-hires. The "RA" means the call-out time period (6am to 6pm). The asterisks (*) mean days off. As you can see, the blocks are 15 days long, followed by 13 days off. However, keep in mind that two schedules back-to-back with work at both ends can mean being gone for 30 straight days. Meanwhile, two back-to-back schedules with days off on the ends will give you a 26-day vacation.
