I took flight 36 to PHX on the day before thanksigving.. flight 26 to PDX leaves and 35 minutes before that. We're waiting for our luggage at the carousel in PHX, and a box of 10 pineapples goes by..(not the ridiculously priced airport pineapples) I look at the tag and it's labeled flight 26 PDX. I bet someone wasn't too happy to not have their fresh pineapple to share with family on thanksgiving. While it's clearly different, I think it might be to HA's benefit to not have closely numbered flight numbers to destinations with close airport identifiers. I bet this isn't the first time that this has happened.
