Your initials as an airport code
Do we have here on FT such a thread?
Have you ever wondered if your initials make up an airport code?
Mine is KID
(KID)
Kristianstad Arpt
Kristianstad, SE
I guess that's somewhere in Sweden ... been to Stcokholm twice (Stockholm Arlanda Airport - ARN) and drove through Malmo several times on the way to/from Copenhagen but never to Kristianstad.
What's yours?

I actually get 2! AMG= AMG - IATA code for Amboin Airport, Amboin, Papua New Guinea & AMG - IATA code for Bacon County Airport, Alma, Georgia, United States
I was actually surprised, I thought that they had to be unique? Granted, neither airport is large enough to get confused with the other...
