If you want to fly from Toronto to Manchester, New Hampshire on June 24th, Air Canada’s booking engine offers you two options:
You can fly direct, which takes just under two hours and involves a tiny Beechcraft airplane, or you can fly via Winnipeg and Chicago, which takes 10 hours and involves traveling an additional 3,340 km. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to have some sort of “filter out insane flights” tool on AirCanada.com?

At least the fares for that
At least the fares for that flight discourage the insane flight. I was trying to book a flight from Calgary to Dublin last year and the Calgary-LA-Dublin option was the cheapest. I selected the more expensive and but much more direct Calgary-Chicago-Dublin filight.
