15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Guadalajara to Mexicali use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 60 km short after reserves on a 1,792 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Guadalajara International Airport has 13,123 ft and General Rodolfo Sánchez Taboada International Airport 8,530 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.
