15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for West Palm Beach to San Antonio use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 105 km short after reserves on a 1,828 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. President Donald J. Trump International Airport has 10,001 ft and San Antonio International Airport 8,505 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
