There is a requirement in the current CBA to hire furloughed United pilots, but there are triggers that have to be met. The furloughs have to go back to a certain date to and the regional has to be actually hiring. Neither requirement happened during this down cycle. United has remained very opposed to flow. They want to pick their own problem children, not inherit them.
