I'm up to 102 US airports in the USA, the last one being ECP last fall. I've flown into/out of 128 total airports worldwide including 20 in Canada, three in New Zealand (AKL, WLG and CHC) and one each in Mexico (ACA), the United Kingdom (LHR) and Greece (ATH).
Here are the airports in the USA:
BOS, PWM, BGR, EWR, JFK, LGA, ISP, ALB, ROC, BUF, PIT, PHL, DCA, IAD, BWI, ROA, LYH, ORF, CLT, GSO, RDU, GSP, ATL, MIA, MCO, MLB, TPA, FLL, JAX, ECP, RSW, BHM, MGM, BNA, TYS, MEM, SDF, CVG, CMH, CLE, DAY, CAK, YNG, IND, DTW, DSM, SUX, MKE, GRB, MSP, DLH, FSD, BIL, ORD, MDW, BMI, MLI, STL, MCI, ICT, OMA, MSY, LIT, DFW, DAL, IAH, HOU, AUS, SAT, MFE, AMA, MAF, ELP, DEN, COS, RKS, BOI, SLC, PHX, TUS, ABQ, FMN, LAS, RNO, LAX, LGB, BUR, ONT, SAN, PSP, SNA, SFO, OAK, SJC, SMF, OGG, HNL, PDX, EUG, RDM, SEA, GEG.
And here are the airports in Canada:
YYT, YHZ, YQM, YQB, YUL, YOW, YYZ, YHM, YQG, YQT, YWG, YQR, YXE, YYC, YEG, YYJ, YVR, YXX, YXS, YXJ.
Worthy of Note:
PWM: Only time I used this airport was the first and only time I flew Independence air PWM to BNA with connection @ IAD. I'm sorry that Independence Air didn't make it.
IAD: First time there was 1976 on AA76 LAX-IAD DC-10 and the setup was remote stand with moon buggies to take pax to/from the terminal.
ATL: First time there was January 1974 and setup was similar to above at IAD.
MCO: First time there was January 1974; I flew out of there to ATL on Eastern Airlines and there were no jetways at that time.
ECP: Latest "new" airport as of the date of this post; flew in on WN BWI-ECP.
CLE: I used to fly in to this airport at a minimum of once a year (sometimes more) during the 1960's to early 1980's to visit one set of grandparents who lived in Grove City/North Liberty, PA. Through 1978 CLE did not have jetways (at least for AA).
CAK: Intermediate stop (I did not deplane) on CLE-CAK-YNG route on United Airlines Viscount I took a time or two.
YNG: Back in the late 1960's there was a time or two when schedule permitted that I took United Airlines Viscount CLE-CAK-YNG following AA36 redeye LAX-CLE as Youngstown was a lot closer to my grandparents in PA than CLE. That happened only a time or two before schedules changed and that was no longer feasible.
FSD: In summer of 2007 a US flight from PHX to MSP diverted here and took on fuel due to thunderstorms at MSP. Two passengers elected to abort the flight and deplaned.
ORD: In the spring of 1977 I flew on AA191 ORD-LAX headed home from ATH via LHR and ORD. The plane at that time was a Boeing 707. On Monday 21st of May 1979 some people from the marching band, stage band and choir of the high school I attended took AA191 ORD-LAX after being bussed from Holland, MI where I marched in the Tulip Time Parade. I was on an earlier flight, AA167 ORD-LAX and both planes were DC-10's. Friday of that same week AA191 crashed on takeoff from ORD killing everyone aboard.
MDW: Potbelly's is a favourite place of mine to get sandwiches if there is enough time.
ELP: I used to fly there a lot in the 1960's and 1970's to see the other set of grandparents. AA used to fly Boeing 707 and 727 equipment LAX-ELP and once back in 1974 Once I flew CO LAX-ELP back in 1974 and ELP was stopover on trip to ABQ which AA did not serve back then.
SLC: Back in 1978 I flew Western Airlines Boeing 737 LAX-SLC and return. Back then SLC did not have jetways.
LAX: This is the airport that I have flown into/out of the most. However I connected here only once.
ONT: First time I flew out of here was on my Senior Trip in High School spring of 1980. I flew PSA B-727 to SFO. I flew in/out of here a number of times before jetways were used.
LGB: This airport does not have jetways. First time I flew out of here was 1977 on PSA to SFO on a B-727. This airport is also closest to where I live.
BUR: Burbank also does not have jetways.
HNL: 23rd March 1972 was the day I flew here. This was my first time on a jumbo jet on Pan American B-747. There were no jetways at that time.
OGG: I flew here on Hawaiian Airlines DC-9 and there were no jetways at that time.
RDM: First and only time I flew here was in 1985 on Horizon Air F-27 turboprop. On the return to PDX there was no security so I had to clear security at PDX before taking Western Airlines to LAX.
SEA: First time I flew here was 26th December 1970 on Western Airlines B-720 nonstop from LAX. In 1974 and 1976 I flew LAX to SEA on Western Airlines DC-10 "Spaceships" and the seating in coach was 2-4-2 with 36" pitch.
