But leaving during training will DEFINITELY raise concerns that you might have been asked to "resign in lieu of termination". That would not show up on PRIA, so an interviewer will always have doubts.
Better to finish training, but even leaving on probation creates the same vague concern, just to a lesser degree.
It would help if you have a really good explanation, like driving to work from your established home vice a transcon commute. I would buy that one. Also the timing of the second interview and job would be a factor... minimize the air gap, that shows it was a premeditated move on your part. A 2-6 week gap would be suspicious.
Showstopper? No. Might it cost you a job offer somewhere down the line? Maybe, but again depends on your explanation.
This. Resign during training at your own risk. My airline allows folks who won't finish training to resign before they're officially terminated in order to avoid PRIA stigma, so HR folks might be skeptical.
