Airports

I've been to many airports.

I play trivia almost every Tuesday night. This week they had a question about the number of airports in the US. I got the question correct.... in part because I travel lots.... and in part because the TSA is one of my clients. They know all of the US airports.

This reminded me that I was going to do a blog post about airport codes. DH thinks it is strange that I can instantly recall these from memory.

MSP - Minneapolis / St. Paul (home)
AMS - Amsterdam
LAX - Los Angeles
LAS - Las Vegas
DFW - Dallas Ft Worth
PDX - Portland, Oregon
SFO - San Francisco
MIA - Miami
LCY - London City
LGW - London Gatwick
LHR - London Heathrow
LGA - La Guardia
NRT - Tokyo Narita
DCA - Washington National
IAD - Washington Dulles
BWI - Baltimore Washington
MDW - Chicago Midway
ORD - Chicago O'Hare
SEA - Seattle - Tacoma
YVR - Vancouver
YUL - Montreal
DTW - Detroit
STL - St. Louis
DEN - Denver
PHX - Phoenix
SLC - Salt Lake City
CDG - Charles de Gaulle Paris
JFK - John F Kennedy
MCO - Orlando, FL
ATL - Atlanta

Yep....I need a new hobby. Or, I should have been a travel agent.

I have a good story about when DH's brother wanted to fly to Charleston, SC for a long weekend, but ended up with a ticket to Charleston, WV instead. I've been to both, and I prefer SC! I didn't know these until now, but their codes are: CHS for Charleston, SC; and CRW for Charleston, WV. Please.......don't anyone else make this mistake.
