This is the type of thing that backfires every which way.
The company’s just gonna say screw it no more deviating. I don’t care how any of you try to spin it, deviation on deadhead is a benefit for pilots.
trying to get paid reroute pay because you’re originally scheduled deadhead canceled, etc. is an overreach.

Some guys want that but that's actually not the argument. The argument is, let's say you are supposed to DH back to base but your flight is delayed 6 hours. You deviate and take an offline JS or an earlier but not as delayed flight. Instead of taking a snapshot, as it should, it reverts back to the regular schedule without the delay that forced you to deviate in the first place.
