regional flight
Nearby airport route
A regional flight is a short-distance air route connecting smaller cities to major hubs, typically under two hours.
These flights use smaller aircraft and serve routes that wouldn't fill a full-sized jet: The regional flight from Burlington to Boston takes forty minutes.
Regional flights often operate under major airline brands but are run by separate carriers.
