Proof that there are enough regular cardinals Borceux - Handbook of categorical algebra p.268

Definition
An infinite cardinal $\alpha$ is called regular if for every family of sets $\{X_i\}_{i\in I}$, $|I|<\alpha$ and $|X_i|<\alpha$ implies that $|\bigcup_{i\in I} X_i|<\alpha$.

It is stated in the text that for every family of cardinals $\{\alpha_i\}_{i\in I}$, there exists a regular cardinal $\alpha$ such that $\alpha_i< \alpha$ for all $i\in I$.
Is it possible to prove this under ZFC?
(This is equivalent to prove that given a cardinal $\beta$, there exists a regular cardinal $\alpha$ such that $\beta<\alpha$.)
 A: Assuming the axiom of choice, if $\kappa$ is a cardinal, then $\kappa^+$ is regular:
Suppose that $f\colon\alpha\to\kappa^+$ for some $\alpha<\kappa^+$, then for all $\eta<\alpha$, $f(\eta)<\kappa^+$. Therefore $$|\sup\operatorname{rng}(f)|=\left|\bigcup\{f(\eta)\mid\eta<\alpha\}\right|=|\alpha|\sup\{|f(\eta)|\mid\eta<\alpha\}\leq\kappa\cdot\kappa=\kappa.$$
Therefore if $\alpha<\kappa^+$, and $f\colon\alpha\to\kappa^+$, then $\operatorname{rng}(f)$ is bounded in $\kappa^+$. In other words, $\kappa^+$ is regular.
Now suppose that $A$ is any set of cardinals, then $(\sup A)^+$ is a regular cardinal, strictly larger than all the members of $A$.

The axiom of choice is used here to prove the correctness of the infinitary sums in the cardinal arithmetic part of the show. Namely, for every $\eta<\alpha$, we need to choose an injection from $f(\eta)$ into $\kappa$. And indeed, without the axiom of choice it is consistent that $\omega_1$ is not regular. And in fact, assuming the consistency of large cardinals, it is possible that all cardinals have countable cofinality.
