As of right now, if you are a VOLUNTARY furlough you can bypass recall, but if you are an INvoluntary furlough and you get recalled, you either have to take it or leave it and give up your number/benefits. Apparently they are working on a LOA that would allow involuntary furloughs to bypass, which is a good thing for the furloughees.

Nobody really knows if Comair is going to recall anymore pilots. The Freedom flying is still undecided, and personally I don't think it will be that much flying anyway. Freedom might be doing 50 departures out of DTW right now, but that isn't to say it will stick around, go to Comair or go away all together. DL is cutting more routes, removing more 50 seaters and shirking CVG even more. Comair will still lose more 50s this year, and IF the rumors of the CR7/9s going to ASA are true, there is no need for them to recall.
