I hope whoever gets that pairing lets Scheds know that that is an illegal sequence when they are assigned the trip. And I also hope they know can deviate from the scheduled d/h and get a first class, direct ticket, with the new accepted fare being whatever the cost of that new first class, non-stop ticket is.
The relevant sections of the CBA are:

Chap8.A.4.c.iii.
If the deadhead is scheduled for more than 16 hours duty, the following shall apply:
(a) The flight must be a non-stop flight.

Chap8.C.3.a.v.
If a pilot scheduled for a nonstop deadhead over 16 hours on duty, who is not booked in first class, deviates from the scheduled flight in order to obtain first class on another carrier, the following shall apply:
(a) the pilot shall include with his deviation expense report an e-mail from corporate travel indicating that first class was not available on the originally scheduled flight at the time the booking was made; and
(b) the provision of the e-mail in Section 8.C.3.a.v.(a) (the preceding paragraph) shall entitle the pilot to be reimbursed for his deviation ticket up to the full fare first class cost of a direct, nonstop deviation flight on the planned routing, regardless of his deviation bank value.

Might be worth giving your SIG in ANC a heads up to prevent some guys having a lot of pain getting that pig fixed.
