Question

What is the shortest commercial nonstop flight (by flying time) in the world?

Answer 1

This one has to be pretty close.  Regularly scheduled service between Metlakatla, Alaska and Ketchikan, Alaska via Promech Air.  ~ 16 miles. US $42.00 one-way fare. Three flights per day!

Takes off from Ketchikan, lands, disembarks, loads new pax and the takes off again in thirty minutes for the return.

I once took a ride on a Piedmont Dash-8 from Washington DC to Baltimore, and it was ten minutes, block to block.

Detroit to Toledo

NE Philadelphia to Philadelphia?

Answer 7

Green bay WI to Fond du lac WI.  I don't think the plane even put its gear up

Answer 8

commercial non stop flight... hm... if you don't include helicopters then I'll have to say

Montreal Pierre Elliot Trudeau Intl to Ottawa Mcdonald Cartier Intl. Flight time 0:45 minutes.

common acft flying this route.

at least 4 to 5 times a day with air canada or air canada jazz. Dash 8 or CRJ 200

for helicopter, there used to be helicopter flight from Montreal pierre elliot trudeau to mirabel intl . around 15 minute flight time. at least 5 times a day. operated by bell aeronautic i believe. (Mirabel was to complement montreal pierre elliot trudeau intl)

Answer 9

There used to be flight from San Francisco, CA to Oakland, CA (right across the bay). Back then they had promotions for mileage that minimum credit is like 500 miles, even though Oakland is only 15 miles away. So theoretically if you fly a couple round-trips you can get enough miles to go somewhere pretty darn far. ;)  That's way back when, of course.
