450 nautical miles from Willow Run to Minneapolis–Saint Paul Intl / Wold–Chamberlain Field. No cabin we fly needs a fuel stop here. That makes it a seats and schedule decision rather than a performance one.
What flies it
Block time is gate to gate. Each row is cruise plus 21 minutes for taxi, climb and approach. At 450 nautical miles a light jet and a midsize both block 1h 20m. 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.
