If you are asking does FedEx have Aggressive Pick Up while on Reserve, i.e., at a certain time period prior to show time for the trip, a reserve can pick the trip they want to fly instead of taking what scheduling assigns? No, we don't have that, wish we did, United Airlines has something like that.

You can drop reserve days and pickup a trip as mentioned or try to manipulate your first fly preferences to avoid a hub turn. Depending on how short staffed Scheduling is you can be successful with that to avoid hub turning.
