I know about that wording. But I was previously looking in the UPA to find it in writing. Unfortunately, didn’t find anything. Do you happen to know where to read up on this new clause? Thanks!

and you purchased it at least 12 hrs from report time. which means if you are on long call and they call you at midnight for a trip the next day that reports at 1100 an you only have one flight option that would get you there, you are not protected by the commuter clause just because you buy a PS ticket even if that flight would get you there more than 90 min prior to report.

6 rsv days max with 2 days off in between is a bidding restriction imposed by having far 117 30/168 limits.
there ways to drop this down to one day off in between rsv blocks if you get released before noon on your last day and call scheduling to see if they will move a rsv day from another block.
was able to work
6 on, 1 off, 6 on, 1 off, 5 on, 11 or 12 off
I used this as a commuter since I couldn’t sit long call from home my first 4 months. This gave me a good chunk of days off and minimized my commutes.

Global reserve is for any fleet that has any international other than Canada and up to a point South latitude. Basically global reserve varies from regular reserve at there is much more opportunities for the company to roll you into your days off, there are six HDO days which are unmovable, and the rest are our days which are movable. The new contract I believe in August, but it may be implemented already gives you certain amount of pay for being enrolled into that day off, and your day off is restored. The old contract had the six days in a row, but the new contract allows you to split those days off.
Wide-Body base is a typically a global reserve base, most 756 bases are as well, except for San Francisco and Los Angeles. Those are not global reserve bases like I mentioned that it could change month-to-month, depending on what flying is being offered for a fleet and base.
