With all of these new code-shares these days, it seems like some airports' info boards can't keep up! Some use three or four lines to show the same flight with different flight numbers. It seems like there are more flights, when in fact there may very well be fewer

For example, imagine the slow and seemingly computer generated voice at NRT saying ... United Airlines flight 884 bound for Chicago O'Hare is now boarding at gate 33. All Nippon Airways flight 3029 for Chicago'O'Hare is now boarding at gate 33. Thai Airways flight 5321 bound for Chicago O'Hare is now boarding at gate 33. Asiana Airlines flight 2662 bound for Chicago O'Hare is now boarding at gate 33.
