Hop Onboard the Shortest Flight in the World

(via Great Big Story)  Got a tight 80 seconds to spare? It’s all the time you need to fly commercial across the Orkney Islands. The word’s shortest nonstop flight is a tiny hop between the islands of Westray and Papa Westray in the United Kingdom, a mere 1.7 miles (2.7 km) apart. Clocking in at under two minutes, this might be the swiftest and sweetest way to get to work.
