You can still type the airport code.

"No flights available" on NW or Skyteam partners to Seletar. Duh.
I hope they can improve it so at least the NW- or Skyteam-served airports come up first.
Put in SIN-{tab} rather then SIN-{enter}.

Only issue appears to be if the airport code is the first three letters of a city name (such as SIN example above). Again... if using airport codes, use tab rather then enter. Guess I'm lucky, with DTW.
