The shortest regularly scheduled flight in the world takes 2 minutes!

The world’s shortest scheduled airline flight (and therefore possibly the world’s most relaxing airline flight) is a 1.7 mile leap between two Orkney Islands just north of Scotland: Westray and Papa Westray. Operated by Loganair, the flight takes about 2 minutes, and can be watched from start to end in the source!

In contrast, the world’s longest scheduled airline flight is a 9,505 mile exertion from Changi International Airport to Newark Liberty airport. It’s operated by Singapore Airlines and takes about 18.5 hours. However, they are hoping to reduce the flight to 8,576 miles and a 17-hours duration.
