1,338 nautical miles from Laurence G Hanscom Field to Dallas Love Field. 5 of our seven cabin classes make it without a fuel stop. The other 2 cabins can fly it with one, and dispatch will say so up front.
What flies it
Block time is gate to gate. Each row is cruise plus 21 minutes for taxi, climb and approach. At 1,338 nautical miles range comes before cabin preference. The quickest cabin that holds it without stopping is a heavy jet at 3h 05m. A light jet holds it nonstop at 3h 25m, 20 minutes behind the heavy jet. Nonstop is judged against 85 percent of the low end of each category range band rather than a brochure maximum.
