184 nautical miles from DeKalb Peachtree to Charlotte Douglas Intl. Range is not the question on this one. Seven of seven cabins fly it nonstop, so the decision is passenger count and what goes in the hold.
What flies it
Block time here is gate to gate, and most of it is not cruise. Every row adds 21 minutes to the cruise leg for taxi, climb and approach, which on 184 nautical miles is a large share of the trip. A twin turboprop does it in 0h 55m against 0h 45m for a light jet, a difference of 10 minutes. Across the whole list the spread is 10 minutes, so on a hop this short the turboprops are a real answer rather than a compromise.
