With last night's end of flights to Leeds Bradford, Durham Tees Valley and Jersey – some of them after decades of service – the list of former destinations is getting as long as the roll-call of current routes. And arguably more interesting, too.
There have been a few, from the sublime (Chicago, Mumbai) to the utterly ridiculous (Knock). Have I missed any?
