Choosing between 2 offers. Advice please.

hey everyone. I'm sitting on 2 job offers that lead towards different career paths. Ultimately, I will need to make a decision on where I see myself. But before that, I want to hear your opinion on which path to take based on career progression, salary, and exit opps (if any).

Currently have offers for 1) commercial banking as a credit underwriter (bank has ~80b in assets) 2) revenue management analyst position with a top airline (pricing/yield management)

Insight into these roles, general advice, and opinions are well welcome - thanks.

do you know what opportunities are possible after a revenue management role with an airline? leaning towards the underwriter role because I know there's a structured career progression that i'm satisfied with. My worry with the RM job is that i'll be stuck with the same role and salary after a few years.
