Braniff had a Fort Worth-Dallas route for years. Even back in the days of propeller-driven airliners that was a short hop!
Speaking of Fort Worth-Dallas air travel, one of the most famous flights in history was along that short route. Most people don’t know or have forgotten that JFK did not arrive directly at Dallas from Washington. Instead, he flew into Fort Worth, where he delivered a speech and made a public appearance on November 21, 1963. The next day he and the First Lady flew in Air Force One from Fort Worth to Dallas Love Field, where they were met with a tumultuous welcome.
