Oh, I didn't see that important distinction. That makes sense, then, don't see why you would prefer non-stop over stops if it's the same plane you keep sitting in, other than that it takes less time.
I never flew in a plane that had stops, so I forgot that they exist.

That's exactly why I prefer them. Because of the time savings. And I'm willing to pay more for that.

It's increasingly rare as airlines move to a more direct city to city model, but in the old hub and spoke days, you'd often find planes that stopped in one or two hubs on the way.
Southwest still make a lot of stops. If you want to get from the west coast to east cost, there's a really good chance of stopping in Denver, Kansas City, or Texas.

Yeah, that's what I say, I misread you first, but after reading correctly, that's the only interpretation that makes sense. I was agreeing now.

Since I moved to the US I mostly fly overseas, and when I lived in Germany for the rest of my life before that I mostly flew to other countries. I don't know, maybe flights with stops are less common in those scenarios.
