Why are you leaving?
Leaving a regional for a career destination like Delta? Sure, have at, everyone will understand.
Lateraling over to another regional before you complete training? Could be dicey.

No, shouldn’t be a huge deal as long as you are honest why. Ive been in the regionals for a few years, made a lateral move myself (not in Indoc) and it’s never been an issue getting on with another regional...most of the people I fly with tell me they’ve been other regionals.
Plus who cares what people think, make sure you’re at a company you’re going to be happy at that also makes the most sense. If anyone asks down the road tell them the truth. Good luck!

Leaving after one year, no issues at all.
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.

Practical advice, maybe? Why not push start date out with new airline 6 months, finish training, see how you like it and then move if its right. This way if something DOES happen during training (not only failures, but maybe health or family issues), you already have your next job and would not have to explain leaving. Worst case, you went thru the training once, second time should be a breeze. Just a thought.....

Yeah but you can’t “fail” Indoc so leaving in the first week would just be a little red flag and not a big one.
Regionals seem to be a revolving door.
Personally I’d do at least 6 months to remove any suspicions.
And even then it would need to be the offer of a lifetime or a logical career step that just came earlier then you expected.
What’s so much greener on the other side?
