No one here should be harmed because you(generally speaking) have issues when you flow. If you want, bottom of the list, no credit for prior seniority for pay or bidding, but we will give you dec, if envoy hires you.
Very short sighted.
I agree on unlimited flow back, if you're going to give that better get something in return.
But every regional should have a no questions asked return policy. You can come back for up to say 15 months, losing only the seniority which progressed in your absence.
That's only reasonable given the nature of pilot career progression.
It's good for pilots because it promotes movement off the top... I know numerous regional lifers who won't go because their family needs the income... they simply can't take a chance on being that 5% who wash out for whatever reason. And the old guys are at greater risk. I'll admit it was nerve racking when I did it, but for me the stakes were not financial ruin but rather I would have to get a real job which I have the credentials for. But the thought of having to do that was nerve racking.
