The upside is either you get fewer assignments and more time at home with your family, or if CS doesn't follow the contract then you might have to fly a trip you would have had to fly anyways if you didn't invoke NC, but now you will get a few extra hundreds or thousands of dollars of assignment pay. For the price of two phone calls and filing a quick STS if CS screws up? Easy choice for me.
