Usually it had to be involuntary separation through furlough or volunteer for a furlough. Either way it usually has to be due to a company RIF of some kind. I would reach out to ALPA to see what options you have if any.

It’s in the CBA article 9. Basically you have to be in good standing when you leave, and leave to a domestic US carrier with 86 above seats or 100,000 pounds weight. The company has refused a returns that didn’t meet the requirements.

Yep, read that someone that went to a foreign company wanted to come back but was refused. They may allow you to reapply, but you would be back to a new hire and starting over with seniority.

I may add that as a pilot group, this is the rule that you want. It is really meant for people that move on to the big 6 and things don't work out or they fail out of training. The company and union allows you to come back and hold your seniority, which is perfectly fine.
What you don't want as a pilot group is people leaving for a quick buck at some contract job, leaving for a Flag of convenience (or some other foreign airline), or laterally to another Regional for a quick upgrade or some other reason and comes back once they find out the grass is not always greener and immediately fall back into their seniority.
Those people should not continue to hold seniority over you while you stayed contributing to the company. The union and the company smartly put in provisions in the contract that prohibit this type of thing from happening.

So do you work for us?? Because we are not ALPA. IBT. And there’s contractual language that allows for return within 12 months. Don’t comment on these forums when you don’t know
