Yes, when you are furloughed you keep your seniority number and come back at whatever longevity pay scale you were at.

Not sure specific contracts, but longevity at my company only accrues for the first 90 days of a furlough. Seniority continues to accrue throughout.

Getting into semantics but I’m not sure I would refer to seniority as “accruing” during a furlough as it can only improve through hiring. Having four years of seniority doesn’t really mean anything if a new hire is only one number behind you after you’re recalled.

Correct. Your seniority doesn't improve until you're recalled, and they hire and/or retire.

Let's say you work for the company for 2 years, then get furloughed for 2 years. Would you come back on the year 4 pay scale?

It depends on the specific contract of that airline, but the short answer is no for most.
