Anyway, I see CMH has been (wrongly) guessed. I'll go for MCI (not sure if HP even flew there then or ever).
Ah, I was confused for a bit there....but I do remember range restrictions being lifted at Reagan National (which I believe enabled Alaska Airlines to operate nonstop LAX -DCA flights). And LGA did indeed have DC-10 and L-1011 service.

53. Well, yes, America West did serve Kansas City (MCI).....however, our flight in question did not stop there. Please guess again, sir!
