ALPA publishes a bidding strategy handbook that has some "get weekends off" tips. But as in all things, seniority rules. IMHO the new work rules will make reserve go more senior. Now that FSB is worth 3 hours of add-pay, tons of locals are going to bid a week-day reserve schedule becase FSB has a <5% use rate. You might be able to play around with the QOL calculator on aircrewedge.com to figure that out for NB ORD.
