Why even bother? When you 'deviate' you usually come out of pocket anyway and then 'expense' it. You don't even want to deal with the 'originally scheduled' D/H. .. just book the flight you want or need on your own recognizance and the company will reimburse you -up to the value of the originally scheduled D/H.
