Minimum days off is 11 for a 30 day month and 12 for a 31 day month.
Every day on reserve is a long call day. You get 12 hours to report.
You can be converted to short call up to 8 times per month. You must be given 10 hours notice to be converted to short call (like getting assigned a trip). Domestic short call is a 12 hour block of time.
As for what is typical, it depends on the airplane, base, and time of year. Right now I haven't done a single short call the last 3 months and I have filled up to the average line value each of the last 3 months prior to the 20th (meaning I got the rest of the month off). If the airline gets staffed properly in the winter when the block hours go down I would expect that to change...but I really don't expect us to get staffed properly so I'm not that worried about it.
FWIW, I commute from IAH-JFK and have only spent 1 night in my crashpad since May. Last year when I commuted to ATL and was on reserve, I didn't even have a crashpad and never bought more then 2 hotels a month.

FlyinSig,
Question for you regarding taxes. Since you live in Texas and your DAL domicile is in NYC, does the state of NY or New York City take any taxes out of your paycheck? Being that the area is in the democratic taxation stronghold of the northeast, I am curious if you have to pay state and/or city taxes because that is where your place of work is.
Thanks in advance.

What if you are based in New York?Don't know the exact NY answer, but pretty sure if you are flying for Delta you will not earn 50% of your income in the state of NY.
