15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Faro to Shannon use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 3 km short after reserves on a 1,746 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Faro - Gago Coutinho International Airport has 8,169 ft and Shannon Airport 10,495 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.
