As far as leaving due to delays, I decided not to, of course, but why take a further penalty delay for deploying?
I believe consolidation requirements are set by the FAA for the airline vice internally by the company.

Best advice I can give is talk to the Union Rep that deals with the Mil leave stuff, and see what they have to say. They may have an adequate solution for your specific situation that makes everyone involved happy.
