Nice! A map would be a nice improvement, I think. I suppose flights within the same state do not get counted

I don't think so for the existence of map. It would make it way too easy

I don't have access to the source material, but the answers seem to suggest that cities within the same state are not counted. I added a caveat.

"New York City" appears as a clue by mistake.

The furthest airport from DC in Maryland is an hour flight vs a nearly 3 hour drive or train trip. Also, I would be interested in knowing if this "destination" is final destination or layover. DC is a major hub -- I've had layovers there many times.

Maryland has only three commercial airports - BWI, Salisbury/OC, and Hagerstown. The smaller two, combined, have flight numbers less than 1% of BWI's traffic. And, there aren't any direct flights from BWI to either of Washington's other two airports. Since BWI is a Southwest hub and by far the airport's largest carrier, I would think another SWA hub city would be a candidate.

we don't suck at trains, we suck at passenger trains.

I thought I typed in Detroit. Didn't occur to me to try St Louis but from Illinois that makes sense.

I live in Virginia and I have never seen any flight to and from Toronto ever before. Can someone please explain this. I would have said New York, Washington, Charlotte, or Atlanta.

Both Reagan and Dulles airports in DC have flights to Toronto from multiple airlines.

I think most flights out of any airport in MT would be to Denver, SLC or Seattle - not Calgary.

Why all the flights from the Virginias to Toronto?!?
