Remember it’s career progression. Most people think they are owed something and complain about every little thing and future trip constantly I would say stay away from that. Another note probably 85 percent of the people I flew with at the regionals didn’t want to upgrade when they had the time so just remember that too. Enjoy there is no right or wrong job to pick other than the right one for you
You were spot on about picking the regional based on aircraft. Pick a regional close to where you live or want to live and go somewhere that will offer career progression and the the upgrade when it comes. Also pick the air frame that will meet those goals as well even the same company offers the prettier air frame that doesn’t check the career progression box and the uglier frame does…..
By all means if all things are equal then air frame choice can be a great tie breaker l….
