There is really no reason there needs to be flights between the major cities in the north east. It's wild that its not easy and quick to get between major cities. New York City and Boston are roughly 200 miles apart and it takes four hours by car and four hours by transit. Tokyo and Osaka are 365 miles apart by car and an seven hour drive, but you can get between the two cities in three hours by using transit.
