I know a couple pilots at Southwest with no degree, however they had nearly 12,000 hours of 121 PIC time. This degree will be very beneficial for you in the future.
As far as regionals go, your best bet would probably be Endeavor. New hires get NYC as a base and upgrades are at about 30 months right now. They also have a guaranteed interview program with Delta.
This is the best information I can give you. Overall, DEFINITELY get the degree because, more than likely, the farthest you will be able to go is a regional without one. Also, get to a 121 regional as soon as possible.
New hires at Endeavor can get any of our four domiciles, MSP, DTW, LGA, or JFK. Starting first year pay is $50,000.
