That's the thing... if I don't know an airport code, I just type in "XXX airport" in the Google search box of my Firefox window, hit enter, see results, then hit backspace to come back to the thread.

Total time < 5 seconds.

Or even faster (but less accurate)... double click the airport code, then drag to the search box. Total time < 3 seconds.

This is why I when people complain about using codes. Did we stop teaching self-sufficiency in school?
