In 2001, I flew TSA-CYI in Taiwan. Most likely Uni Air.
Taipei (Songshan) to Chiayi
Chiayi airport is so tiny that I arrived around 6:40 for a 7pm flight; that is, we boarded a bus at 7pm and drove 20 or so minutes to the plane for a 30 minute flight.
I just read on wiki (where I got the codes) that this route ended in 2007 due to high speed rail!

Earlier this year I flew between Dar es Salaam, Tanzania and Dodoma, Tanzania (airport codes possibly DAR -> DOD), on a 12-seater run by Auric Air. Not a much traversed route as most tourists in Tanzania head to Arusha or Kilimanjaro for safari. But Dodoma is officially the capital city (even though most work is still done in Dar) and that's where I was working for the week!
Would be very interested to hear if anyone else has ever flown this route...

I flew PDX-BFI-PDX on K5 in Nov. 2010, back when they were still touting the "TSA-free airline" tagline. I won a free RT ticket on Seaport's Facebook page and used it to go to the annual Flyertalk moderator workshop in Seattle that year. They served Voodoo donuts and Stumptown coffee in the "gate area" at PDX. ^

Thanks for the reminder - not sure I posted these earlier:
Helijet (do helicopters count?) from BFI to helipad by Victoria's Inner Harbour (don't think it actually has a three letter airport code).
And for a little while there was another single prop flying BFI-YYJ. IIRC did that only as a one way; but did several r/t with Helijet.
