With record numbers of pilots projected to be hired at the legacies in the coming years what is more important.

At a regional who just lost a contract with Delta and am coming up on my 1000 hours. I have flown a lot and it looks like I’ll hit 1000 hours right at 13-14 months on the line. However with the loss of flying the prospects of upgrading and FLYING are slim. As of now it is looking like endless reserve once upgraded. I am holding an offer from an LCC and with the recent new trend of legacies picking up LCC guys without any PIC time I am trying to see what others opinions are on this.

Stay at regional and try to gain PIC time, albeit slowly, then try and move onto a legacy

Go to LCC build more total time, and demonstrate progression with an Airbus type and another passed check ride.

Cheers
