Good news, and you are correct about standing up for what is due under the CBA. I rarely think the Company does things like this intentionally but nonetheless we need to call them on it.
I have a friend who recently called in fatigued and he did not know that the Company was required to DH him to base, or he could buy a ticket and deviate to his home. The Company dropped him like a hot potato once he pulled the trigger (that is a whole other story BTW) bottom line is we need to know the contract better than they do.
