Don't confuse him with nuance. UAL's "global reserve" is nowhere in the same
universe to what can happen at DL. The answer to his question is "no". Global reserve is, in effect, like inverse PB days solely at the company's discretion.
Getting rerouted on an existing trip into an X-day (off day) is
super rare, and can only happened for 1 extra day domestic, or (I think) 2 international. And getting
involuntarily inversely assigned (a brand new trip on off days) is effectively not possible if you don't answer your phone (AFAIK, jetway assignments have not happened in at least a decade).
