1,025 nautical miles from Dallas Love Field to San Diego 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 is gate to gate. Each row is cruise plus 21 minutes for taxi, climb and approach. At 1,025 nautical miles a light jet and a midsize land within 5 minutes of each other, 2h 40m against 2h 35m. The midsize is bought here for cabin height and bag space, not for speed. Nonstop is judged against 85 percent of the low end of each category range band, so this column is a number dispatch can hold to rather than a brochure maximum.
