Came across a neat idea online recently, where you list the three-letter IATA codes of all the major airports you've flown into or out of. I'll go first. If anyone wants to add to this thread, please only list the three letter codes, not the actual names of the airport or city. So, here are the ones I've flown into or out of. Apparently I'm not all that well-travelled.  ATL BOS CLT CMH CVG DAY DFW DTW EWR JAX JFK LIT MCO ORD ORF PHL SAN STL YYZ |

hun? Don, The International Air Travel Association (IATA) assigns three letter codes for every major airport in the world. These codes are used by all the computerised systems, from booking tickets, to air traffic control, to security. Most Canadian and Québecois airports have a three-letter code that starts with 'Y'. For example: Toronto Pearson International is YYZ, and Montréal Pierre Elliot Trudeau is YUL |

Mm, I'm certainly not as well-travelled as you lot, but I've been to:
MIA (Miami international)
LAI (?) Los Angeles (which was REDICULOUSLY large)
(Atlanta)
(Seattle)
(Costa Rica)
Don't recall the codes for most of them. MIA just stuck in my head because it's an acronym and I kept imaginin the plane dissapearing over some mountains somewhere.

I'm not a well-flown fur. In fact my philosophy around flying is that if humans were meant to fly, we'd have been given wings (or evolved them, or what have you). I'd much rather travel by boat, train, or car. That's not to say they're any safer than flying, they're just a lot less nerve-racking. It takes me about a week to recover, sleep and nerve wise, from the 5 hour between Ontario and BC. Sad thing is I want to travel to Europe one day... I think the only way to do it is by plane.  YVR (Vancouver International) YOW (Mcdonald-Cartier International Airport) Like I said, pretty small beans. |

To the best of my recollection, and thanks to looking up these airports on Wikipedia (they're also in roughly reverse chronological order, except for the first):
YSB
YYZ
ATL
PFN
MSP
MEM
HKG
SYD
MEL
BOS
BUF
YYT
MCO
ORD
There are probably a couple of others I'm missing from infancy, but I have recall of those, anyway.

I've never been off the North American continent, and I've never visited any American state other than Washington. I don't really plan on adventuring south of the 49th parallel too much anywhere in the world (too warm for me down that way), but I do plan on going to Ireland and the UK sometime in the next ten years.
