To me, the 150$ is well worth the 120hz display, extra battery life, and active cooling fans (if you push it hard enough to activate them). Also, the option for dual monitors is cool, and you have an hdmi port on the Pro. They also have better resale value (at least here in Canada).
Edit*: you also have more GPU cores, which is nice for any video editing, modelling or gaming, if you plan on dabbling there at all.
also muuuch better speakers, and the screen is a Mini-LED. Unless OP absolutely needs the portability of the air (which at 15" isn't that much compared to the 14" pro), it would be absolutely insane to not go for the pro.
The screen is actually debatable. 15” vs 14”. MBP has Mini-LED but MBA screen doesn’t have PWM which is more eyes-friendly for people with sensitive eyes & long term usages.
