Cities With Scheduled Service Within Themselves?

What are some cities that you guys/gals can think of which have/had scheduled service between two or more airports which serve that same city?

I can think of:

  • Los Angeles
  • San Francisco
  • Houston
  • London

    Paris, New York, and Moscow seem like likely candidates; though I cannot personally recall any scheduled services between their respective airfields. What are some others?

    It used to be IAD-BWI-IAD. DCA-BWI-DCA.
    IAD flights were operated by ACA J32 and DCA flight was operated by Alleghany DHC-8.

    Doesn't the Pan Am helicopter service from JFK to the Pan Am building count as well?

    Wasnt that done more on a charter basis for wealthy incoming pax... as opposed to a shuttle basis? If so, then it shouldnt count.


    Also, hasnt Toronto's airports had service between each other?

    Tokyo also seems like a likely answer.

    How are we defining same city?

    I would imagine that if the airport name has the city name in it (HOU/ IAH), that counts.

    I also imagine that airports that serve the same metro area (EWR/JFK/EWR) (BWI/ DCA/ IAD) count.

    But what about airports that are in proximity (within 40 miles) of each other but that serve primarily a different city?

    Does HPN fall under New York?

    Do PVD and MHT fall under BOS?

    What about SNA/ONT/LAX/BUR?

    I think techically the only city is Houston (if they still do their HOU-IAH flight). The other cities have very short flights, but the airports are technically in other city limits  Big grin

    USAirways Express still runs twice daily from ORF to PHF, flights 3358 and 3121 with DH3s and DH8s respectively. Three flights run PHF to ORF, flights 3105, 3482, and 3319 utilizing Dash 8s as well. Who knew there was that much demand for flights from the southside to the peninsula within Hampton Roads?

    Toronto doesn't have any intre-city flights. Seems to me it would be quicker to take the highway anyway. It's a big city, but when traffic's good, it still only takes 20-25 minutes or so to go from YTZ or YKZ to YYZ, so it's really not necessary.

    Interesting topic, though!


    Next flight.... who knows.

    I don't think IAH is anywhere near inside the city limits of Houston.

    Do you know if those flights from Norfolk to Williamsburg/Newport News are continuations from say RDU or someplace else?

    Would there be anything like this in Mexico city?
    I know it's a poor city and probably doesn't have too much traffic, but it's huge from what I understand, so perhaps there is some cross-city demand?

    IAH is in the Houston city limits. The expanded the city to include the airport when it was built.


    Sir, don't you think we should turn on the runway lights?" "No, that's just what there expecting us to do!"

    At one time, US Airways Express provided service from PNE (Northeast Phila) to PHL.

    Now, there is no scheduled service, at PNE. TWA Express left in the early 90s....

    The ORF-PHF flights are continuations from other cities. I'm also fairly sure that they go on to other cities. They are not just strictly inter-Hampton Roads flights.

    3358 is listed as ORF-PHF-CLT and 3121 is listed as DCA-ORF-PHF.

    Still interesting that if one wanted to, they can take a twenty minute flight from Norfolk to Newport News.

    New York City would indeed qualify. There were many scheduled flight between JFK, LGA, the Pan Am and, later the 34th St heliport (I think 34th St is right) over the years. I do not really count EWR as it is in New jersy, although it is closer to Manhattan than JFK.


    What is it with all the "is there a possibilty airline X will.." threads? The answer it'll is possible.

    Mexico City is not a poor city (okay, it's no New York City, but still, this is a city with a huge middle and upper class), nor does it have little traffic. However, if I am not mistaken, there is only one airport in the city.
