If I don't get a call by 7 or 8pm base time the night before a trip with training on it, I have just called scheduling and been released with no problem. This has been my experience for full trip drops. Partial trip drops are a bit more inconsistent.
I guess I'll consider myself blessed!
The LCP vs LVP thing is a real thing. If a LVP does not show, they will get another CA (hypothetically) to fly the trip with the original FO.
