What are the chances scheds will call with the new plan before I have to commute (prior to 12 hours out from report)?
Since it's a morning trip, I go up the night before, so I'll have to spend the night no matter what.

Tsquare could probably give you a better answer but I'll try. (I'm not an LCA)
If it is an OE, chances are slim that they will call you for something different. If either pilot sicks out or can't make it for some reason, you are still there to cover. You are supposed to show up for the trip as normal and then the LCA has the option to release you from the trip or take you along. I don't know about any recovery obligations. I don't think there are any but I'm not sure.
Best thing is to call the union and see what your obligations are.
