Might be different at different airlines. I live in CO and am based not in CO. I took a voluntary leave of absence in May from the airline I work for and ended up getting unemployment from CO and not from the state I am based in. Since I live, vote and pay state taxes in CO and claim this on my tax forms, and do not pay taxes or have any other affiliation whatsoever with the state Im based in, I was eligible for and received money from CO and not the state Im based in. This could vary with airline policy / tax policy, state law, and the way individuals do their taxes. Best to ask your financial advisor / tax person if you have one or anyone you know in the state where you live familiar with tax / unemployment law. I found out by asking the lady that does my taxes.

So I have a question for anyone that understands how airline furloughs work...

I'm assuming, if they furloughed 138 pilots, and next month they get an increase in hours, that they then call in/recall enough pilots to fit scheduling (let's say 20 in October, keeping 118 furloughed), then they look at the schedule in November and they get get an increase in hours recall more pilots (lets say another 20, keeping 98 furloughed), and they keep doing this till they are down to zero furloughed and then they start back hiring again. Is that how this works? Just curious. I'm one of the unfortunate souls that had just passed the interview and was awaiting a training date when the brown stuff hit the fan. Hoping that if this is the case, that people will post how many people are recalled each month so that those of us potential new-hires that are waiting on the sidelines know where we stand...

Essentially yes, but I don't think personally that they will start recalling this year. Also keep in mind that since you never reported for training, you have no right to recall. They may require you to interview again. If they started recalling 40 a month in January, you'd still probably be looking at not getting a class date until June at the earliest, as every pilot on property now needs to be recalled before new hiring can occur.

Correct. I've already spoken to an attorney about it.

October numbers out, not a huge increase, but an increase nonetheless. Also, get your loonies and maple syrup out for those YYZ turns!

No no no maple is for YUL turns. Or, if you want it real legit, save it for BTV.
