How about threads on the following -

1) Airports at which I have landed but not changed planes.
2) Airports at which I have visited on the ground but not actually flown out of or into.
3) Airports at which I have never rented a car.
4) Airports at which I have rented a car.
5) Airports at which I have never checked a bag.
6) Airports at which I have checked a bag for an outgoing flight but not for an incoming flight.
7) Airports at which I have never bought a snack.
8) Airports from which or which I have only flown turboprops.
9) Airports from which I have flown that do not have jetways.
10) Airports from which I have taken a train directly from the airport.

Not very impressive for me:

Into only:

New Delhi, India
Harare, Zimbabwe
East Berlin, Germany

Out of only:
Tehran, Iran
Kano, Nigera
West Berlin, Germany. (Yes, this counts--this was in the time of the Iron Curtain. The two airports were in different countries at the time.)

Obviously, each trip had an overland component between the in and the out.

According to FlightMemory. As I don't travel so often (leisure only), I don't have the opportunity to go back at the same places and knock some airports off the list, and prefer open jaw tickets when possible and practical.

In only:
VIE (out by train, departed ZRH)
MAD (out by train, departed BCN)
LHR (departed LGW)
ORY (TGV to Lyon, departed LYS)
ICN (departed GMP)
KIX (departed NRT, tried hard to add HND to the "out" list, without success )

Out only:
BCN
LGW
YTZ (twice, once in by train, once in from YYZ)
CHC (trip started in AKL)
YGR (Iles de la Madeleine, QC, Canada: in by car and ferry)
GMP

This is an interesting question. For me, I think it is usually from European open jaws. Let me see....

ZRH Zurich departure only
TXL Berlin Tegal departure only
GIB Gibraltar departure only
LGB Long Beach, California departure only
JMA Marriott Astrodome Heliport, Houston departure only
JGP Greenway Plaza Heliport, Houston departure only

ONT Ontario, California arrival only

NZME (took off but landed on feet not in aircraft).

More conventionally LGW, LGA.

Perhaps BSL & EAP (arrived French part of airport & departed Swiss part of airport)?
