UAL Furlough Update
To all furloughees,
United has made recall offers to all 2172 furloughed United pilots! The most junior pilots to accept recall will be returning in the 26 February 2007 recall class, nearly five and half years after they were furloughed. A total of 871 pilots bypassed while United worked down the recall list, allowing furloughed pilots who were ready to return to United the opportunity to return sooner. Recall Bypass rights have now expired and United has started the process of recalling pilots in inverse seniority order to fill all future recall classes. The first 99 “Final Recall Notices” have been issued to fill the 26 February 2007 and the recently announced 26 March 2007 recall classes. There are also 26 pilots who have voluntarily come off of Recall Bypass to return in these two classes as well.
The following are the recall statistics as of 7 February 2007:
As of the 5 February 2007 recall class:
Recalled - Active Status 716 Total in 2007 87
Recalled – LOA 529
Bypassed 823
Resigned (going down the list) 31
Retired (over age 60) 2
Deceased 3
Total Pilots remaining on Furlough/Furlough Bypass 891
Including the 26 February and 26 March 2007 recall classes:
Total Offered Recall 2172
Total Furlough Status 0 (have not been offered recall)
Total Offered “Final Recall” 99
Total Responses to date 2109
Recalled - Active or Accepted 743 35.2%
Recalled - LOA or LOA upon return 557 26.4%
Bypassed or Verbal Bypass 744 35.3%
Resigned, Retired or Deceased 65 3.1%
I realize that the decision to return to United or resign will be a very emotional decision for many of you. How fast the “Final Recall Offer” will get to you will depend on several factors. First and foremost will be the number and size of the recall classes. Initial offers have been made for the 26 March 2007 recall class and United is currently planning two (2) classes in both April and May. Class size for the planned classes has not been decided and will be determined by staffing need and training availability, which will be influenced by those who are returning from LOA. The next two (2) factors are the resignation rate and how many pilots voluntarily come off of bypass.
