If I have deviated, does the CBA require the Company to rebuild my trip if the scheduled deadhead is cancelled or changed by the airline?
No. We grieved (Administrative Grievances 02-15 and 02-16) this issue and appealed it to the System Board of Adjustment. On August 12, 2003 the Board denied the grievance on the merits, finding that the CBA does not require the Company to rebuild a trip for a deviating pilot.

That grievance was for a change in the deadhead after you deviate. If the original scheduled deadhead is now 5 hours late - you don't get extra pay a a deviator. The original pairing still met all contractual requirements.
This situation is about a change in the pairing to provide a "legal" crew rest
prior to the original scheduled deadhead. Your operating leg gets in 2 hours late - the company still has to show contractual crew rest prior to the deadhead.
It doesn't matter if you are deviating or not - the company is still required to build or rebuild a legal pairing.
