This sounds like the sort of Caribbean gig where you fly fast and low at night to uninhabited islands. Not that I know or anything about it personally... *quickly looks away*

This sounds like a good gig to help stay safely social distanced during the pandemic.

This. You’re going to have a hard time standing out during your 5 year zero to hero plan if all you have is a couple of thousand hours of RJ time. Of course if you have an in already at United then that’s fine, go to the regional that will get you the most time in the quickest way possible. If this isn’t you then you should consider making a livable wage too and exploring all the options.

Covert Advice
 
Go buy all of the under garment body armor that you can get your hands on, and that still won’t be enough! This should soften all of the beat downs, punches to the gut, kicks to the groin, and bend over requests that you will encounter while employed in The Friendly Skies! Rhapsody In Blue will help a little in masking your pain!
