What airport have you used the most?

[Floridaman999]

Philadelphia PHL
Second would be Los Angeles LAX-lived there for eight years
Based on your first two airports, I was able to correctly guess what the second two airport codes are.
Oh, no!!!! You're one of "those" people.

You know, the more I reflect on this the more I'm not sure what you mean.

Nothing bad, I swear. I just think it's unnecessary to use the system where the K is placed in front of the 3-letter airport code (for continental US airports).

Over the course of your life, you'll probably waste an hour of time and hit an additional 10,000 keystrokes on your laptop. Think of all the fun things you could be doing instead.

Ohh, that makes sense. In my defense, I have spent a great deal of my life a fan of aviation. I've always loved flying and have spent time with flight sims since I was a teen. I think I just automatically use the country code because of that. I am officially guilty of being one of "those" people.

CLE
CAK
CSG
MCO

Cleveland is being used less and less with United cutting back the number of non-stops to MCO... CAK is convenient for me, but not too many convenient flights. Columbus is quickly becoming my go to airport for flights to MCO with Southwest Airlines offering several non-stops a day to Orlando with Southwest.

I use JFK the most, since I live in NYC and prefer it to LGA. I've probably used SFO the second most, since I've traveled to SF once a year for quite a few years now.

That's because you just know, I have been able to guess on some peoples too. I too do not like the K, but it seems like its being used more and more.
Was in two of them last night and glad to have landed at the one, so much warmer.

I knew the codes for Toronto and Orlando off the top of my head, but had to guess that the other two were for Sanford-Orlando and Niagara Falls. Have fun in Florida.

O’Hare. The upside is that I find nearly every other airport I then use is so much easier to navigate.

 

[Kitty 34]

The top 4 I use a lot

1. Cleveland (huge lead)
2. Las Vegas
3. Orlando
4. Akron-Canton

Jason, my son is an ATC at your 4th mentioned airport. I'll have him wave at you the next time you come or go.

 

[jaiminee krikit]

Midway and MCO are the only airports I've flown out of more than once.

Yes that right. That Niagara Falls airport is really nice and convenient. We use it a lot.

I am seriously 15 min away

Same here. Living in Perry/Massillon

 

[mco65]

Hartsfield/Jackson (Atlanta)

Personally, i think its a waste to fly from Atlanta to Orlando but we have done it more than a few times. My daughter hates driving so the last few trips her and her mom flew and me and the boys drove... they won that race both times but only be a couple hours.

 

[Captainkidd76]

MCO first. Then probably a tie between Logan (Boston) and TF Green (Providence).

 

[J'aime Paris]

MKE
ATL
PNS
MCO

You mean if I come and visit him possibly this spring you and I are going to have to meet!! How fun that would be!!. He lives about 10 minutes from the airport.

If you're throwing in an ATC tour, I feel a road trip coming up for me.

I doubt they do ATC tours since tourists became terrorists. Darn. I would love that, too. I did get clearance to go into my son's radar room when he was stationed in Oklahoma. Being a jet junkie (what the family has always called me) that was a real awesome room. And watching those tankers land and take off right near the runways was beyond cool. We used to go to O'Hare in the 70s just to watch the new 747s come and go.

But hey we could still meet somewhere near the airport for a "DIS meet".

Plane spotting is one of my favorite things to do! When I was a kid I got one of the radios from Radio Shack (Yes, I'm that old), and would tune in the towers so I could listen to the activity while I watched them all come and go. I haven't done it in years because the security makes it so much more difficult to do, but I do love to watch air traffic at a large, busy airport.

I would absolutely come to Ohio for a meet also. I'm in!
