BMI-ORD was my quickest flight, and only flight when I landed before the scheduled departure time :). I've had a few shorter, though.

I did SBN-ORD and landed 45 min prior to departure. But MKE-ORD was shorter which tied with WST-BID my shortest flight.

Depends if heliports or seaplane landings count as unique airports ;)

And considering that that's the shortest scheduled commercial flight in the world, he's unlikely to be dethroned anytime soon.

Isn't 2 minutes considered kinda long for that flight? I seem to remember that it can be as short as ~45 seconds if the conditions are right

It's blocked for two minutes. Time in the air is generally 60-80 seconds. The record is 47 seconds, with a strong tailwind.

By that logic, if skydiving counts then falling off a dogsled should also count
