Loganair
The shortest commercial flight in the world is in the air for just 57 seconds — and it costs £36 ($ 51) return.
The route from airline Loganair, the only major UK airline owned and headquartered in Scotland, covers 1.7 miles between the two islands of Westray and Papa Westray, near the mainland of Orkney, an archipelago in the Northern Isles of Scotland.See the rest of the story at Business Insider

It was just a couple of months ago that Grey’s Anatomy’s Jason George was telling TVLine that Ben and Bailey were the kind of marrieds who “work it out no matter what.” But as the time drew nearer for his character to cross over to the ABC drama’s upcoming firefighters spinoff, his outlook was beginning to change. Now, a breakup seems like “a genuine possibility,” he admitted at the show’s recent 300th-episode blowout. “Nothing lasts forever.”
1) You have to sit still and not touch anything.
2) They take forever to dry.
3) Even when you think they’re dry, they probably aren’t.
4) They’re chipped within, like, a day.
5) After seemingly no time at all, the polish gets clumpy and is difficult to apply.
But I hate chipped nails and bare nails, so…I guess I have to suck it up.

SG/Ken Amer/Orkney Photographic
The journey between the Orkney islands is 1.7 miles and has been done in 69 seconds
His time made it into the Guinness Book Of Records and from that day to this the route has been recognised as the world’s shortest scheduled flight.
Alsop later trimmed 11 seconds off his time and while Stuart Linklater – who flew the route 12,000 times between 1989 and 2013 – got it down to 52 seconds, in the absence of an official scrutineer his record remains an informal one.
Next month Loganair, the airline that flies this short hop in a twin-engined Britten-Norman Islander for £36 return, will celebrate the route’s 50th anniversary and so I flew up to Orkney to sample the joys of extremely short-haul travel.
During the school term you are likely to be sharing the plane with teachers – a number of whom commute to Westray from Kirkwall, Orkney’s largest town – but during the summer many of the passengers are tourists keen to cross the world’s shortest flight off their bucket list.
My parents are visiting so we decided to do the shortest flight
On the day I board Loganair flight LOG323, with photographer Ken Amer in tow, our companions include Glasgow University student Julio Rodriguez, 28, and his partner Ester Checa, also 28, who works as a civil engineer with the local council in Kirkwall.
“My parents are visiting so we decided to do the shortest flight,” says Julio. “I like planes.”
“And flight simulators,” interjects Ester.
Other travellers may well be history enthusiasts. Locals say that if you stick a spade in the ground on Orkney you’ll find an archaeological site.
And Westray and Papa Westray are no exception.
In 2009, the only neolithic carving ever to have been found in Scotland was discovered on Westray. Christened the Orkney Venus by the international media, the 4,500-year-old 41mm tall sandstone carving of a woman is known more prosaically as the “Westray wife” by the islanders.
On Papa Westray, meanwhile, the Knap of Howar is the oldest preserved house in northern Europe, dating back to 3,500BC.
When Loganair identified its one millionth passenger on the route last October, it turned out to be Anna Randall, an RBS “flying banker” who had taken more than 10,000 trips on the service as she visited island communities to tend to their banking requirements.
Our pilot is 30-year-old Gary Scott. In his yellow hi-vis jacket, Gary may not display the epaulettes and sleeve stripes of an international commercial pilot but there’s no doubt he’s the real deal.
Before joining Loganair in 2015, he spent four years with Susi Air, an airline flying out of West Java to some of Indonesia’s most remote islands, which was the subject of the Channel 4 series Worst Place To Be A Pilot.

One of Susi’s captains said that flying to some of the most remote and dangerous locations on earth was “95 per cent boredom and five per cent pure terror” and US embassy staff were banned from flying Susi following a series of fatal crashes in 2011-12.
The flight to Papa Westray promises to be a rather more sedate affair, however.
Weather conditions are good and the natives are said to be much more friendly than the sometimes warring tribes that Gary and his colleagues encountered on jungle airstrips.
Once aboard, it’s clear that there will be no G&Ts served by trolley dollies.
Behind the pilot there are eight seats, two abreast, and it’s a snug fit for the slimmest of passengers. Nor is there any of the “Doors to manual” nonsense.
The safety briefing consists of Gary turning round to ask, “Everyone got seat-belts on?”, before notifying us that the safety instruction cards are in the seat-back pockets. With that he pushes forward the throttle and we’re off.
The timing of the trip is done from “wheels off the ground to wheels down” and I start my stopwatch as we clear the runway and head across the narrow strait that separates Westray from its neighbour to the northeast.

As the plane’s flaps remain down the entire way, the plane doesn’t exceed a matronly top speed of 110 knots but within 55 seconds we are over dry land once more.
Given its name, you could be forgiven for thinking that Papa Westray is the daddy of the two but it is in fact much smaller, just four square miles compared to Westray’s 18. The name Papa comes from the monastery it once housed.
These days the monks are long gone and its population of around 75 now mostly consists of fishermen and farmers – there are more cattle than people on Orkney. Gary veers left towards the island’s short, compacted gravel runway.
When the service first got under way in 1967 the runways were grass and a herd of cows performed the task normally carried out by a lawnmower.
“The cattle were taken off before we landed but unfortunately they didn’t take off the cow pats,” recalls Stuart Linklater, now 64, “so when the nose-wheel hit the cow pats it spread it all over the plane.
Then people would get out and the seatbelt would fall down the side of the aeroplane and you’d get cow dung over everything.” With a little wobble, Gary brings the Islander to earth in 82secs, some way off the record and 12 seconds longer than Gary’s personal best but well within the two minutes on the schedule.

The route is about the same length as the runway at Edinburgh airport and Gary tells me that the trip burns just 10kg of aviation fuel – about £15 worth. Given that a Boeing 747 can use 1.5 tonnes of fuel taxiing before take-off, this makes it a pretty green form of travel.
Within five minutes, having deposited Julio and co and picked up a few new passengers, we’re heading back to Kirkwall.
And at the terminal building I am issued with a certificate signed by the captain – proof that I have flown the shortest scheduled hop on the planet.
To take the world’s shortest scheduled flight you first have to get to Kirkwall, capital of the Orkney Islands.
Loganair operates services to Kirkwall from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness.
Passengers can also travel from a range of airports throughout the UK via the airline’s codeshare arrangement with British Airways.

The pair could be seen talking in the bedroom when the Ex On The Beach decided to probe the singer on her relationship with the Girls Aloud members.
Sarah noted that she looked like “a giant” next to Cheryl when she would perform in heels as she compared the new mum to Polly Pocket.
But Jemma quickly moved the conversation onto their relationship, asking: “Do you still speak to her?”
“I haven’t spoken to her in a while,” the 35-year-old replied. “I last spoke to her when we were working on the Xtra Factor.”
Jemma, 28, probed: “Did you fall out?”
“Everyone is asking that, it’s just that we’re so busy with our own stuff,” Sarah responded.
“It’s not for me to say. I don’t like bringing up or talking about the other girls if it’s like a personal thing.
“We were like sisters so it was never going to be plain sailing the whole time. Being around girls the whole time is difficult sometimes.”
She continued: “Nothing is forever, we went through a lot together but nothing lasts forever.
“We went through so much, you know, even if we had fallen out, I’m sure it wouldn’t be a major deal in the future.”

Fighting game matches can come in many forms, from quick blowouts to drawn-out bouts, but one Japanese arcade has introduced something quite unique, holding tournaments for the game Galaxy Fight in which the rounds last only two seconds each.
Mikado, located in the Tokyo neighborhood of Takadanobaba, is holy ground for fighting game fans. With its long rows of head-to-head cabinets, the unassuming game center is the perfect place for competition. Its schedule is filled with regular events for everything from modern titles like Guilty Gear Xrd and Ultra Street Fighter IV to classics such as Vampire Savior and Samurai Shodown.
That said, more obscure games are typically the focus at Mikado, and nowhere is this more apparent than during the arcade’s Street Fighter Carnival events. Despite the name, these competitions feature a variety of franchises, allowing even the most niche titles to share the spotlight.
Galaxy Fight is one such game. Developed by Sunsoft for the Neo Geo, the fighter’s unique sci-fi trappings helped it stand out at least to some extent during the 1990s’ explosion of Street Fighter clones. The use of infinite-scrolling stages without the usual invisible boundaries forced players to pursue their opponent, making matches fairly offense-oriented.
Over the last few years, Mikado has included Galaxy Fight in two separate Street Fighter Carnival circuits. Unlike the other chosen games, however, this one had a special caveat: Where most competitive fighting game rounds are played with 99 ticks on the clock, the Galaxy Fight machines started with just :01 on the timer.
You’d think such a thing wouldn’t work, and yet it seems to have distilled the intense mind games associated with the fighting game genre to their purest form, crafting a unique experience for players and spectators alike. Strategy that typically plays out over a minute and a half is crammed into just a few brief moments. Should you wait for your opponent to make the first move and react accordingly, or bet everything on a risky uppercut that can be punished if it misses? With such a small amount of time for gameplay, the weakest attack can secure a round, opening avenues for outlandish tactics that infrequently pop up during normal competition.
“In reality, you’re able to move for two seconds,” an employee of the arcade explained to Kotaku—the timer stays on :00 for another second before the match ends “Because of this, even if you are blocked, you are still able to knock down your rival’s health, and it does make for quite a match.”
If you found a Galaxy Fight machine in an arcade, you wouldn’t be able to set the round time to one second. That ability is limited to the owner of the arcade machine, through a special function test menu. “In static test mode, you can change the play time,” said the Mikado employee. “Since you can decrease it down to one second, it started with the notion that this might make for an interesting competition.”
After introducing the concept in August 2014, the folks at Mikado have run one-second Galaxy Fight tournaments regularly, as recently as last year. The game center plans to include one-second Galaxy Fight and this special format during Street Fighter Carnival IX later this year.
You can replicate this setting at home, if you have the right version of the game. The Arcade Archives release of Galaxy Fight on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One also allows players to reduce the round time to just one second, making it quite possibly the perfect ice-breaker to introduce fighting game-averse friends to the appeals of the genre.

Most of us can only dream of our next holiday, let alone a trip around the world.
But for the super-rich, the sky’s the limit.
DreamMaker is a luxury travel boutique that caters to a very small niche.
The firm targets cashed up globe-trotters for holidays they’ll never forget.
DreamMaker has just launched an epic vacation with an eye-watering price tag.
Lasting less than three weeks, the trip will take you around the world for the tidy fee of £11 million.
Passport to 50 involves travel on a private Boeing 767 jet, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg.
The extreme luxury holiday includes over 50 members of staff to cater to the traveller’s every need.
There’s also room for up to 50 of the guest’s family and friends to enjoy the ride.
Passengers will jet to 20 different cities in the 20 days, with plenty of luxurious destinations to suit the opulent journey.
The holiday starts in Thailand’s Koh Samui, before heading to Siem Reap, Kathmandu, Agra, Florence, Siena, Cannes and Moulinet.
Guests will also pop in at London, Barcelona, Ibiza, Marbella, Marrakech, Havana, Knoxville, Kona and El Nido.
There’s even a “secret island” stop before the final destination of Manila, Philippines.
But that’s not all – there’s also one night in Las Vegas, private film screenings, 3 Michelin-starred meals and fashion events on the extravagant itinerary.
The holiday cost covers your own personal hypnotist, private chefs, spa sessions, yoga classes and wine tastings too.
DreamMaker founder Gregory Patrick said: “It is irrelevant how big and beautiful your private jet is if you are unable to relax comfortably or get the required amount of sleep on the plane.”
A percentage of the profits will be donated to non-profit organisations.
If you’ve got cash to burn but you’re in the mood for a more permanent holiday, you could always purchase your own island.
Pumpkin Key is a private island off the coast of Miami that’s up for sale for £75 million.
