Okay, so you want me to rewrite this blurb about the shortest flight ever, but like, make it sound like I’m just chatting about it? Got it! Here’s my attempt:
Okay, so you wanna know the shortest commercial flight, huh? Well, get this – it’s a real doozy! It’s Loganair’s flight from Westray to Papa Westray in Scotland. Can you even imagine?
They schedule it for a whole minute and a half. A minute and a half! But seriously, most of the time, it’s even less than that. I heard – get this! – the record is like, 53 seconds. 53 seconds! That’s shorter than some songs on the radio, right?
I mean, think about it. By the time you buckle your seatbelt and the pilot says, “Welcome aboard!” you’re practically landing. What’s even the point, right?
It basically just hops you over a tiny bit of water between these two Orkney Islands. It’s so short, you almost wonder if you could swim it faster… Okay, maybe not swim, the water’s probably freezing, haha! But still, it’s gotta be the ultimate in convenience, right? I mean, if you lived there, would you even bother unpacking your carry-on? I know I wouldn’t! Imagine bragging to your friends that you went on an international flight that barely lasted a minute! Crazy, isn’t it?
