I am in a similar situation, also have a BS in Accounting. I don't think you'll have a problem at all. Accountants are always going to be in demand. How much experience do you have?

Any employer worth working for will understand your endeavors into aviation. This job requires many attributes that are valuable in any prospective worker.

You might have to start at the bottom, but even the bottom will usually start at $40,000 per year. Compared to regional FO pay, that is a substantial pay increase. Then, as the dust blows off, you'll be given raises appropriately.

I might be right behind you. This airline I am at is sinking. I love flying, but I am not so sure I love it THIS much. But, I am not ready to pull the eject lever yet, but might be within a few months.

Good luck!
