Presuming the baseline for "longer" is the 2290 miles on the CP Air YVR-YUL flight, the only one that comes immediately to mind is Northeast's LAX-FLL at 2343 miles
You are correct! Northeast operated both MIA-LAX and FLL-LAX with its 727-95. There is one more which I believe is the longest point to point segment on a scheduled flight within North America. We have discussed it here on the OTAQ&D previously...
18C- I updated my original post while you were answering it, so here's that guess ... just looked up gcmap distance for SFO-CLT (2296 miles), Piedmont with a 72S ... it's longer than the CP route, but not as long as NE, so we may still be looking for your objective answer
