Metro Airport Codes
I have seen some information on FT in different places, so I thought I would compile it all together and then add some more. If I missed any, post them and I will edit this top post to keep a "running list."

Wow .. a lot of work eastwest .. a handy evolving reference, thanks. I know there must be reason for these below being omitted, or maybe just could be added where applicable, as "metropolitan" is such a loose term these days, and as you have EWR and NY grouped, even tho they are different states, likewise IAD/BWI/DCA these might all apply:
LAX-ONT-BUR-SNA
MIA-FLL-PBI
SFO-OAK-SJC
Osaka - KIX-ITM
Buenos Aires is EZE (Eiza) and downtown one which is ???

I cheated and did some hunting on United Connection 3.0 last night...
Found many more, and it was a hassle to get them...But I think some of them are only United Connection codes (not official city codes) used to distinguish the line of 'Any XXXX area airport', but do not work on at ual.com.
Here are a few:
QLA--All Los Angeles Area Airports (LAX, SNA, BUR, LBI, ONT)
QBA--All San Francisco Area Airports (SFO, OAK, SJC)
QMI--All Miami Area Airports (MIA, PBI, FLL)
Then a few oddball ones:
QNK--Any Kingston Jamaica Airport, KIN (Norman Manly Airport) and KTP (Tinson).
QKA--Any Maui Airport, OGG (Kahului) and JHM (Kapalua)
QBZ--Any Belize City Airport, TZA (Belize Municipal) and BZE (Belize Intl)
SDZ--Any Shetland Islands Airport, LSI (Sumburgh) and LWK (Tingwall)
And one legitimate one (I think):
GLA--Any Glasgow Airport, GLA (Glasgow Intl) and PIK (Preswick)
There were a few other even more remote ones (Sheltand Islands!?!?) that I didn't bother with.
Sorry, I couldn't sleep last night...A little too much free time on my hands.

Sorry for cheating -- or at least going to the source.
Now, can anyone fill in the multiple airports in these areas? More than on airport in Baghdad? Who knew.

In BUE are EZE (Ezeiza, or Ministro Pistarini) and AEP (Aeroparque J. Newbery)
More complicated is the situation in Iguassu Falls. On the Brazilian side is IGU, Foz do Iguacu, and in Argentina IGR, Iguazu.

Count me as someone who would love to see Meigs Field used more. A friend who used to work for the State of Illinois took the CGX-SPI shuttle frequently, and the convenience to the Loop (and points like Hyde Park, Woodlawn, and Pilsen) was wonderful.
When staying at the Conrad Hilton, you can see planes on approach at eye-level from the Towers lounge.

You need to add SFB to ORL and MCO which now has BOTH schedualed domestic and international service as well as a whole lot of international charter service.

I just found this thread after trying to compile a list of my own from lots of different sources. I don't think that there really exists a *definitive* list as these seem to vary by the FAA, by different airlines, by different travel agents, etc. This is the most thorough list that I have, but I've pretty much given up on having a perfect list, though corrections or additions were certainly still be appreciated...
(Note that where there's a *, the metro code can represent either a metro or a specific airport. Argh!)
