This flight was the first scheduled commercial flight anywhere in the world.
As mentioned above, this is obviously incorrect. The first heavier-than-air service was by the "St Petersburg - Tampa Airboat Line" using a Beonist flying boat as described by DeepestSouth. If lighter-than-air is considered Zeppelin began services in Germany in 1908.
