AIRPORTS WITH FOOD NAMES

05/15/2019

What’s in a 3-letter airport code?

Well if you ask us, it’s in the eye of the beholder. So we scoured the planet and came up with a list of our favorite, food-themed airport codes.

JAM

Although we prefer the strawberry variety over the traffic variety, this airport at Bezmer Air Base in Yambol, Bulgaria shares the namesake of both.

NUT

If you’re in nuts about Papua New Guinea, then flying into the Nutuve Airport (NUT) Should be the highlight of your trip.

PIE

ext time you’re on the Florida coast, stop in for some PIE at St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport. Sadly, it wasn’t named after the sunshine state’s famous key lime pie. This delicious name stems from the airport’s former name: Pinellas International Airport in Ellas County.

PEA

If you don’t like yours with butter, you may want to try smearing on a little Vegemite like the Aussies do. Especially if you’re in Irontsone, Australia at Penneshaw Airport (PEA).

SOY

Going vegan? The kind folks at Stronsay Airport (SOY) in Stronsay, UK have you covered.
