Shortest: Gatwick to Heathrow on the British Caledonian helicopter. IIRC about 10 minutes.

If you arrived into LGW on a B-Cal flight and had an onward connection from LHR (any airline), they transferred you for free in their own helicopter.

As soon as we were off the ground, a girl in a tartan skirt (B-Cal uniform) unbuckled her seat belt, stood up and offered each of us a boiled sweet from a wicker basket. That probably took all of 30 seconds, then she sat down again.

Oahu to Maui, something like 20 minutes.

Shortest dublin to derry
Longest madrid to buenos aires, about 13 hours with no seat entertainment. Just old fashioned tiny screens rows ahead of you. It wasn't that long ago either
