I was wondering if there was a press release about the hiring of UAL furloughees (although I "resigned").
How's it going BTW? Just got "promotion" that will start next week... (very nice bump in compensation).

OK, disregard about the press release. Just got a FB message from a friend at USAirways with a link...

hum....so how would that work....would they remain on the furlough list at UAL... or do they give that up to go to the bottom of the CAL list with perhaps at least getting paid for their longevity at UAL... ???

Any guesses on what the furloughed United pilots' recall acceptance rate will be? 50% at best would be my guess. Most of the 1400 furloughed are double United furloughees: post 9/11/01 and then again in 2009. How does that saying go....."Fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me." Would this be fool me 3 times????

Or as George Bush tried to say:

You don't give up anything from United. They offer spots to UAL pilots in seniority order and you go to the bottom of the CAL list. You are paid according to your UAL longevity (although I'm not clear on whose payscale they use). When they sort out the SLI one of these years, you go back to wherever you fall on the list.

At least thats how I remembered it...I will have to go back and read the agreement again.

Most of those I know furloughed in the wake of 9/11 found greener pastures (SWA/FedEx/UPS). Those furloughed after the 2008 economic collapse had nowhere to go in or out of aviation and will have a much higher acceptance rate if it gets to them. Throw in mil leave and I'd bet they get close to going through half the list.

That's pretty much it. Paid at CAL A/C rates using UAL longevity.
