A slightly inane question, but I was thinking about this today and thought it might provoke a bit of a discussion on here. I've flown from a fair few, but I know that plenty on here will easily be able to trump my list...which is as follows...

England:
LBA
Heathrow
Gatwick
Stansted
Liverpool
Manchester
Birmingham

Ireland Dublin

Northern Ireland Belfast Int

Netherlands Schipol

Germany:
Berlin Tegel
Dresden
Dusseldorf
Frankfurt
Munich

Greece:
Santorini
Athens
Corfu

Spain:
Madrid
Malaga
Palma
Ibiza
Mahon
Reus

Cyprus Paphos

Malta Luqa

Portugal Faro

Hungary Budapest Ferihegy

Turkey:
Dalaman
Antalya

Other Asia:
Manilla
Bangkok

The Gambia Banjul

Australia:
Sydney
Melbourne
Adelaide
Darwin

New Zealand Auckland

USA:
Honolulu

Chicago O'Hare
Orlando

I'll accept the challenge, but I will set you one as I will list the three letter codes.
UK:
BHD/BHX/BLK/BRS/CVT/DSA/EMA/GCI/HUY/IOM/JER/LBA/LGW/LHR/LPL/LTN/MAN/MME/NCL/PWK/STN;

Rest of World:
BNE/CNS/MEL/SYD/YYZ/GCM/AKL/SIN/BKK/BGR/BOS/DCA/IAD/JFK/LAX/MCO/MIA/ORD;

I think that makes it 83 (84 next week when I go to BRE)

Re: Can you recall ALL of the airports that you've flown fro

We (my wife and I with our children in the early days who now fly with their own families far more often than we fly these days) began using aircraft for leisure about forty years ago. Since then neither of us has had the good fortune to fly with someone else picking up the tab, apart from one occasion when we agreed to be 'bumped' from an overfull KLM aircraft in consideration of a significant sum of money that actually covered our original return fares from Bristol to Amsterdam. KLM also chucked in a complimentary meal and drinks in the first class restaurant at Schipol and flew us home via Brussels with Sabena. Would that sort of customer relations occur these days?

I reckon we've averaged about six rotations a year over that time (more in the earlier years though fewer in the last couple of years) which gives a total not that far short of 500 flights though we are creatures of habit who know what we like and tend to make many repeat visits.

I've set out the list below as best I can remember it but there are probably one or two omissions. France is absent from the list as all our visits to that country have been by ferry or tunnel.

The Balearic and Canary Islands combined are our most prolific destinations. We've been to the islands around 50 times, which makes about 100 visits to the airports there if you count out and back. Scotland and Newcastle come next with around 40 rotations (80 flights) in total followed by Amsterdam with probably around 20 visits (40 flights) both to The Netherlands and from there across the Atlantic.

I apologise, CRK should have been ORK - Cork. BSC is Brescia in Italy, BGN is Bergan in Norway. I think they have been completed now, but I will turn down Pilot Ben's challenge, I know my limitations. Thought I was going to get stuck in Bremen this week when they started closing the airspace again, but I managed to get back home without any problems.
 
Not as many as some but mine are...

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!
If anyone would like to share their local airport news right here in our news area let me know so I can give you the correct permissions to do so. It only takes a couple of minutes to upload a news story with an accompanying image. The news items can then be shared on the site homepage by you. #TakePart #Forums4airports Bring the news to one place!
survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
