Ditto on the X days. I've been here almost 3 years, all on reserve and the only time I've "flown" on an X day was when we had to cancel due to a mechanical and we were the last flight back. Fortunately, I was able to jumpseat home on another airline that night, but I still got my day restored with payback.

Be advised that your scheduler may not know this. I gave my scheduler a courtesy call at noon the day before a mil leave and took him by surprise.

"A long call pilot may be released from on-call duty at 1200 base time on his last on-call day prior to a non-fly day (e.g., X-day, regular line day-off) if he contacts Crew Scheduling and requests to be released."
Per PWA 23.S.7
From what I have noticed it's not always automatic like someone else said. Check your rest info in icrew to make sure you are released and if not, call.

8. A long call pilot will be released from on-call duty at 1200 base time on his last on-call
day prior to a “hard” non-fly day (e.g., golden day, MLOA, ALPA drop).
This is from LOA 22:
Short Call
Amend Section 23 S. 9. to add f. and g. (new):
9. A short call pilot:
a. will remain
.
.
f. will be released from on-call duty not later than 1200 base time on his last oncall
day prior to a ―hard‖ non-fly day (e.g., golden day, MLOA, ALPA drop).
Seems to me it is not automatic if you are going into regular XX days or a regular day off if you have a regular line the next month. I may be wrong? Best bet is call the scheduling guys at DALPA, or post a question on the forum.

"Along call pilot MAY be released at noon the day prior to a day off. A long call pilot WILL be released at noon the day prior to a hard day off (ie golden day, MLOA, vacation, etc".

Shortcall is released at noon also. Basically you are done with all reserve obligations at noon prior to a hard no fly day. You might have to remind scheduling of this fact on a regular basis.
