Can a UAL guy please help me out? I'm a CAL guy who just got offered a furlough recall and I have a few questions.

One of my options is to take a 3 year furlough leave of absence (FLA), which lets me maintain seniority, but not accrue longevity. More importantly, it appears that our current POS contract doesn't permit us to maintain any long term disability (LTD) coverage while on FLA. I've heard that it's next to impossible to get reinstated into LTD once your coverage expires for any reason.

Does UAL's current contract address this? Are your furlough bypass folks eligible to get re-instated into LTD upon returning to work?

Thanks,
Justin
