How to play
Standard mode: ten untimed IATA rounds. Sprint mode: twenty rounds under a 60-second clock with fast auto-advance. Codes map to well-known U.S. passenger airports from the educational comparison bank — the same major U.S. airports people study for travel literacy.
Major U.S. airports and IATA codes
Travelers say “New York” but tickets print JFK, LGA, or EWR. Chicago is ORD or MDW; Washington area traffic includes DCA, IAD, and BWI. A major-airports study list and an airport-code quiz are the same skill with different SERP wording — US5 keeps one playable page instead of a thin study URL farm.
US5 does not scrape live delays. Codes are stable teaching pairs so Sprint races stay fair.
Airports as place anchors
An airport code is often the fastest way to locate a metro on a national map. After you learn ORD or SEA, open the related state or city hub for cost and wage context around that metro.
