Take a good look at this and the argument is settled really. Money wise you are effectively paying 25K a year for the privilege of flying a Dash 8 over Ryanair. Same pay I’d still take the jet job as you’ll get hours faster, can bounce into TUI etc whenever you like.
Ryanair will treat you like garbage, yes totally agree. But it’s a fixed pattern roster and will have you in the LHS or a better company pretty sharpish. FlyBe may be a bit more fluffy and nicer to you as an employee, but you really are paying for it.
Turboprop vs jet hours though? No one really cares, just as likely to get DEP onto the 380/777 somewhere like BA or Emirates with either, they just care that it’s ZFT eligible.
