Prelim will probably come out 31 March or 7 April, can’t remember if they take two or three weeks to manipulate the results to their liking.

Last block of 4 reserve days I didn't get called the first day, then did a three day trip that was a single DH back to CLT on the last day of reserve. Was able to self myself back to CLT on the 2nd day of that trip (3rd day of reserve) which gets me that last day off. Plenty of examples of doing that. It's not a bad way to live.

The short version is yes you can, although it's dependent on available inventory on the flight in question. Take a look at the Compass Doc for DH for all of the complexities, including how to look all of this stuff up and book your own DH in CCI. Once you understand the mechanics it's pretty simple.

I'm a half hour away from the parking lot and will probably continue to bid reserve for a while. It usually nets me a few extra days off.

I'm on the Bus. Can't say I've done a 'normal' trip out of CLT as I'm bidding SC, but according to the union pairing dashboard, mostly 3-4 day trips. There are a smattering of 5 day trips as well but most of those are finishing with a trailing redeye so you get back to base very early on day 5 after a long layover somewhere out west.
