	I like the idea; I'd have liked the quiz itself better if you adjusted the column widths so there was less scrolling (or replaced the list of airlines with a count).

	ellebob:	Apr 11th, 2010 at 21:57 GMT	2 points
	"East Midlands" isn't a city in Europe - the closest city is Coventry but if you want to keep it as East Midlands you have to change your quiz description

	ellebob:	Apr 11th, 2010 at 22:00 GMT	4 points
	Sorry it's not closest to Coventry (I was cleverly getting it confused with Coventry Airport then!) - it's closest to Derby

	crover:	Apr 11th, 2010 at 22:20 GMT	1 point
	I typed in Tenerife and even San Cristobal de La Laguna but neither were accepted. You can't really have 'Tenerife North' as the only acceptable answer. Anyway that's all meaningless since there's no way you can class Tenerife as containing any 'Cities of Europe'.

	ben615:	Apr 11th, 2010 at 22:27 GMT	3 points
	Ok here's what I've fixed-the third column doesn't show up until after the answer is given. Ellebob, you're correct that East Midlands isn't a city, but if you typed in Nottingham, Derby, or Leicester, it should have shown up because it serves all three, and not Coventry. As for Tenerife, you were completely right, so I changed the main answer to the city it serves, and it now accepts Santa Cruz/Santa Cruz de Tenerife as alternatives. Thanks for the heads up-

	East midlands was called Nottingham East Midlands Airport for 2 years between 2004 and 2006, though i agree with ben615 on Nottingham, Leicester and Derby being acceptable for it, as that is now its name - "East Midlands Airport: Nottingham, Leicester, Derby"

	sabresfan:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 04:11 GMT	2 points
	It's still a lot of scrolling once you start getting them right--and it can make you skip past something you didn't answer because you didn't see it. Perhaps you can use airline codes instead? That would really cut down the scrolling.

	crashintoavan:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 04:32 GMT	2 points
	yeah the airlines doesn't really seem necessary anyway. maybe a more interesting 3rd column would be the number of annual or daily transatlantic flights.

	pmapsu:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 04:52 GMT	1 point
	missing cologne, germany. continental definitely flies there from newark

	ben615:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 06:05 GMT	1 point
	Ok, I've made the third column the number of transatlantic destinations to clear up the space. As for Cologne/Köln, this was served, but the route ended over a year ago.

	cuendillar:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 09:34 GMT	1 point
	Maybe specify that you're looking for passenger traffic only. Gothenburg and Malmö have cargo flights to among others New York. I doubt they're the only ones.

	rockinlipe:	Apr 12th, 2010 at 16:58 GMT	1 point
	good idea

	nbatchelor:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 02:36 GMT	1 point
	No flights to St Petersburg?

	royalhawai:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 05:06 GMT	0 points
	source? i want to know who flies to Toulouse, East Midlands

	ben615:	Apr 13th, 2010 at 05:19 GMT	1 point
	Keep in mind these include flights from both American (N+S) and European carriers, so for example, Air Transat (Canada) flies to Toulouse, and UK carriers like Thomson Airways (scheduled charter) fly from East Midlands. I had all of the airlines in the third column, but it took up too much room so I removed them.

	transitfan:	Mar 21st, 2011 at 14:16 GMT	1 point
	The city for "Shannon" is probably better listed as "Limerick," I believe.

	topguyspb:	Jul 1st, 2011 at 08:23 GMT	1 point
	Great quiz, BUT... what about St. Petersburg? There are direct scheduled flights to Cuba and Dominican Republic.
