	You accept cities and codes but what about names? I kept trying Logan, Dulles & O'Hare. Seems like those ought to work. And I'm very surprised BWI doesn't make the list.

	Please accept 'Logan' for Boston.

	yeah, how can you ask for airports, yet only accept city names?

	Good quiz, and great choice of destination city. But for some unknown reason I always forget Pittsburgh and Vegas, mainly due to the fact that both cities are close to but not on their respective coasts.

	Surprised by the lack of Baltimore.

	Baltimore? What about New Orleans!

	Salt Lake City offers direct flights to Orly? O RLY?

	@moviegoer74, SomeoneRandom, & TrumpetPlayer It clearly states: 'Can you name the cities of US airports...' Airports are clearly not what's required. However, I do agree that accepting an airport code when it just happens to be in the city name is inconsistent. Either accept codes, airport names, and city names and change the description; or only accept city names and nothing else, and keep the description as it is.

	Surprised by the lack of New Orleans or Baton Rouge or wherever the main airport is in that state. What with the French connections and all.

	surprisingly, BWI is served by british airways (and aer lingus in the past) but never air france! not sure why. having flying as a hobby (and a pilot's license) certainly helped in this quiz, but for non-aviation enthusiasts I think that saying what each airline code is would help, especially for the lesser known airlines like TN (air tahiti nui), SE (XL Airways), SS (corsair) and EC (open skies). @stupid bunny- delta offers seasonal service to CDG from SLC daily on a 767, not to orly. the quizreally should ask about direct service to charles de gaulle OR orly, not "and".

	I flew for Delta Airlines for 16 years, but forgot about the PIT-CDG flight. That's a new flight, as they don't fly PHL-CDG now. Las Vegas makes sense. As does MCO (Orlando). I've worked that flight for years. Loved the destination, hated the flight. Too short, full flights, always misconnects for a lot of the passengers.

	@biskit67 On a sphere, like one the Earth is -OK, pedants, its a geoid-, the shortest path is not the one that seem shortest on a 2D map. http://www.gcmap.com/mapui?DU=mi&MS=wls&P=CLT-ORY,+ORD-ORY You can see both paths which go along the shortest distance, called Great Circle.

	Charlotte's mileage threw me off since there were three cities within 100 miles of Charlotte's 4174 and they were all located in the Midwest. Tried St Louis, Milwaukee, even Des Moines.

	Hey quiz creator here: airlines use a "great circle" map, which doesn't always seem logical. Click on the source and check out mileage if it's confusing you.

	Guessed Newark, yet I forgot Detroit. I'm disappointed in myself....

	Washington Dulles is close enough to BWI that it's perfectly reasonable that you don't have flights to Baltimore from France. And while BWI is Baltimore's sole airport, being Balitmore WASHINGTON (Thurgood Marshall) International Airport, it is a part of the Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority. Notice that Newark/New York is the only metro area with more than one airport that has service to both CDG and ORY.

	I enjoyed the quiz. The mileage and airline were big hints. I'm not sure I would have got them all (probably wouldn't have got SLC or PIT) without them. I don't have any experience making quizes. Is there a way to 'hide' the clues and only have them visible if you click on them?

	O RLY?

	chriskotx:	Mar 12th, 2012 at 20:44 GMT		10 points
	ORLANDOoooo..of course!! (facepalm) There's probably direct flights to there from Kyrgyzstan.

	I was gonna say that I wanna see a direct flights to Tel Aviv quiz... could probably get most of them considering the amount of times I fly there combined with the fact that my main city (Boston) doesn't. But after the above comment, I insist you make the Kyrgyzstan one first.

	I have taken a direct flight from BWI to DeGaulle on Air France, so I'm confused as to why it has been left out.

	DarkPhalanx:	Mar 13th, 2012 at 01:30 GMT		3 points
	...because Air France doesn't fly to BWI? Check their schedules if you don't believe me. British Airways does, and Condor will to Frankfurt this summer, but that's it as far as transatlantic is concerned. I've lived in Maryland for three years and in that time, Air France has never flown to Baltimore

	The acceptance of city abbreviations is incredibly annoying in this quiz.

	DarkPhalanx:	Mar 13th, 2012 at 16:04 GMT		1 point
	Mockers: I don't accept city abbreviations, I accept IATA airport codes. Which should be a given for a quiz about airports.

	Cheeselord:	Mar 13th, 2012 at 18:10 GMT		2 points
	@biskit67: It's called East, not West. And I presume that it's because Charlotte lies quite a way South of France, whereas Chicago is on a similar latitude.

	xolkan:	Mar 13th, 2012 at 20:46 GMT		3 points
	I'm happy that they accept city names instead of airport names cause if it was airport names I wouldn't get half of what I got the first try.
