I had that and asked scheduling. They said I'd be responsible for being in position for the reserve the next day in the new base. I said it physically impossible. He said that is my problem.
never had to find out as I was assigned a trip that coveres the overlap and they got me to my new base at the end.
I'm sure they have to give you a day plus time for rest before starting new block.
If not call fatigued

When you extra fly a trip, the overlapping dh’s MAY be removed from the pairing where you won’t get paid for them. I have heard (but not experienced this scenario) this is the case when you extra fly both halves and Skeds restores the trip to the original pairing without the dh’s. I know you WILL get paid for overlapping dh’s when you bid (straight or premium) and are awarded both halves. I’m not sure what happens when you extra fly one half and pick up from ttga the other. I would NOT rely on contract admin for the answer. Your best bet is to call SWA scheduling and ask them. If they say yes you get paid for both, it’s on tape and you’ll get error pay if the audit comes out not in your favor.

I flew this exactly and got paid all dh's. 1st half extra flew, 2nd half OT.

I think my confusion was if it gets assigned to a reserve as a pairing continuation, they just strip the deadheads and you don't get paid for them. This is a different scenario.

I think that had I picked up both ends of this trip in OT, I’d have gotten deadheads. Since one end was EF and the other TTGA, I did not.
edit- weirdly enough the MDH value dropped two tfp overnight. Wtf?
