After being put on hold for 10 mins the answer was basically, "Oops, sorry." Yeah, maybe I could have gotten the supervisor to change it, but the difference wasn't that big between the two trips. The take-a-way for me from that experience and other is that it's a 50-50 shot at getting what you want, yet you're having to hang it out there to get hit with an assignment.
If they assigned you a trip outside the contractual requirements you are do assignment pay for that trip. You should have called contract admin and requested they investigate the trip coverage. I get paid every time they make a error. If you accept it they will just keep doing it.
