It is most definately a company decision but the company does communicate their intentions with the union.
This came from CAL P2P dissemination. "There will be no UAL furloughs recalled to CAL as a result of this system bid."
I personally, hope that we can get as many furloughed pilots back flying as soon as possible. (last summer would have been nice) However, I do not want to see furloughees get their hopes up based on unsubstantiated rumors.
I wish I had better news, but with a projected 1-2% growth for next year it does look like the combined group will need some recalls, just hard to say how many or when.
