Out of curiosity, do you think there is a distance between two playable airports that would be “too close together”? Right now, the closest two playable airports are PRG and LEJ, which are ~110nmi apart. I’m thinking of MSY and IAH, are something like those two (~260nmi) too close together? Or is it more like the distance between SAN and LAX (~95nmi)? Or NGO to HND (~140nmi)?
Do you think it depends on where the airports are located, geographically, and not so much the distance between them?

Yeah I think its more of where the airports are located like for example SAN and LAX are in the same country even the same state

The shortest scheduled passenger flight in the world is between Westray and Papa Westray in Scotland, covering a distance of just 1.7 miles (2.7 km) and taking about one minute. This flight is operated by Loganair and has a record flight time of just 53 seconds.

I think that the US is so big that being in the same state is the non-advisable thing. Like you said, SAN and LAX are in the same state and very close together, but something like SAN to PDX or SAN to SEA would be better. Tbh, even SAN to SFO might be okay, despite both being in California
