Advice for a new ppruner

[206_Man]

Hello Everyone, wanting some advice from your collective experience. I am 30 years old, have approx. 800 hours, M/E -IFR with a few renewals, and also have a separate tertiary qualifications not in the aviation field.

My question is being my age, is it still a realistic idea to think the airlines (Regional or Major) will look at me, saying I maybe 33-35 before I have suitable airline hours.

Any advice welcomed, especially from any of you who have been in this situation.

Thanks
