Hmm…I’ll see if I can remember them all. Burlington, VT Boston (Logan) New York (JFK)\* New York (La Guardia)\* Albany Newark\* Cleveland Minneapolis Chicago (O’Hare)\* Philadelphia\* Pittsburgh\* Atlanta\* Charlotte Tampa Bay Orlando Las Vegas Los Angeles (LAX)\* San Fransisco\* Munich (I think it was Munich…might have been Berlin…I was 17 and it was just a connecting flight)\* Rome Milan Cincinnati? I think?\* (I had a connecting flight on time in Ohio, I can’t recall if it was Cleveland or Cincinnati) All the \* are for visits that were just connecting flights, everything else was either an airport I arrived or departed from. All said, it’s not a lot, but I think it’s large when I realize I’ve only ever taken seven trips by plane my entire life. But with today’s “cheap airfare travel sites” you get lots of connecting flights. ---

Must be almost 50, over a wide swath of North and Central America, the Caribbean basin and a little into the Pacific. I do know off the top of my head the ones where I’ve only been as a stop or connection and never left the grounds: Panamá (Tocumen) Portland OR San Francisco Dallas-Ft. Worth Houston (Bush) Charlotte Chicago O’Hare Bermuda (weather diversion) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-many-different-airports-have-you-been-to/561506.md?page=6)
