@ h4ydn - thanks for playing! @ Mogilny - Yes, I was surprised too, but the Civil Aviation Authority statistics for 2010 indicate Heathrow to Islamabad was the busiest route to Pakistan from London's busiest airport, with 128,725 passengers recorded. Lahore was second busiest with 94,367 passengers and Karachi third with 68,532.

Shouldn't the UK be on this list? The busiest domestic route out of Heathrow goes to Edinburgh, not London :)

@ micah - an interesting thought! I think it might be a little difficult to justify :)

@angularity: lovely quiz; but to me it seems difficult to justify
not
including the UK, at least as a bonus answer! It clearly fits the criteria as you describe them, even if it’s a bit surprising.

I'm guessing that Tanzania should be on here... BA flies to Dar es Salaam but not Dodoma, no?

@ thedpr - ooops! You are quite correct. I've amended the quiz to include Tanzania. Apologies, and thanks for the heads up.

Not sure about Tanzania, general sporcle convention seems to consider Dar es Salaam the capital even if technically that isn't correct.
