You don't build longevity while on furlough.
This is a huge, industry wide misconception. Longevity is based on years of service.
If you were on first year pay and then were furloughed for Five years..... You return to work once recalled and pick up where you left off on first year pay.... waiting for second year pay.
Regardless, I agree. Furloughed from a good company is better than dead man walking at Comair.

It depends on your contract. Some airlines accrue longevity while on furlough. Delta for example.

I got an email from the union stating the breakdown of the numbers of pilots taking the early out. In a nutshell:
91 total pilots took the buyout
28 of the involuntary furloughees took the buyout
12 of those taking the buyout were on some sort of "leave" status (GL, ML, FMLA)
48 of the 91 were "active" pilots
91 total pilots took the buyout
28 of the involuntary furloughees took the buyout
12 of those taking the buyout were on some sort of "leave" status (GL, ML, FMLA)
