Also I know the short call out is approx. 2 hours. I could stay about an hour east of JFK and 1:15 from LGA. Is that acceptable or do I need to be able to get to EWR within the 2 hours as well.
The only part I can answer with certainty is that on shortcall, you have to be promptly available (generally accepted interpretation is 2 hrs to airport). In NYC and LA, this is also further interpreted to be 2 hrs from one of the airports in normal traffic. I.e. Philly works.
Bad traffic changes things and a call to crew scheduling with your status and that you are on your way is all you need to do.
