The same route can sometimes be served by a 737-700, sometimes by a 737 Max8 and sometimes by a 737-500. You never know upfront which aircraft type you're going to get.
In Scotland you might be able to fly one of the last remaining Saab 340s of Loganair, I found the Glasgow to Kirkwall route to be served by a Saab 340.

Well, the DC-3 isn't a classic by these standards, but Buffalo Airways in northern Canada flies these on several passenger routes.

I thought LADE was almost gone, but apparently they have even acquired "new" equipment:

Buffalo Airways hasn’t flown a scheduled passenger DC-3 operation in about 5 years.
They do however, offer charters in a combi BT-67.
Canadian Warplane Heritage Museum in Hamilton, Ontario does offer sightseeing flights in its DC-3 and Beech 18. Or …. for the brave, sightseeing in a Lancaster or B-25 bomber, or a Canso.

Sightseeing in a Lancaster? OK, I'm definitely gonna try it. I didn't know they were still flying!

It’s not cheap but there are only two flying Lancs left on the earth, (with talk of a third soon!). This one is the only one where a sightseeing seat can be purchased. Last I checked, it was $3600 CDN, plus you have to be a member for $125/yr.
