Smaller props (Dash8 100/200, Beech 1900, EMB-110, etc. etc.) IFF (that's "if and only if") the number of pax is less than half the aircraft capacity and the route is less than 1 hour. The flights are at lower levels, so the views are much better.
I'm quite partial to the 757's looks. That doesn't mean it's a pleasant ride.
