15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Okinawa to Sendai use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 95 km short after reserves on a 1,820 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Naha International Airport has 9,840 ft and Sendai Airport 9,842 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.
