Stifler Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Toronto’s airport is actually in Mississauga, not Toronto, but is named as Toronto’s airport because it serves Toronto. All of London’s major airports are not within the city of London. Stansted is closer to Cambridge than it is London, but it’s still called London Stansted. The only real major international airport that is actually within a city centre is possibly Las Vegas, and that’s because the airport predates the city.

et tu brute Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) Just had a glance over at the mackem forum fully expecting a mass cry of agreement in the name change. However, surprisingly the majority were saying it was a stupid idea (plenty of ponteland talk and what boundaries the airport lies in though). If even the most anti anything Newcastle people are thinking it’s a joke, then that really sums this up. Edited June 15, 2021 by et tu brute Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If even the most anti anything Newcastle people are thinking it’s a joke, then that really this up. Someone should post this onto their idiotic forum . . . The article is from the early 1990s, when a small part of the Airport encroached into Northumberland. That area was incorporated into the City at that point. In the late 1990s I worked with the accountant who actually pays the Airports Business Rates Bill, and he paid it all to the City. lly Edited June 14, 2021 by manorpark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
number37 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 That's a really good find, especially nice to see recognition of where the regional capital is, as if we didn't already know. I think we (Northumberland) should be due some compensation though for losing an airport and yet more land to our southern neighbours. I'd accept Gosforth or wouldn't mind our former exclave where the old county court/HQ is next to Bridge Hotel. Although Northumberland Airport sounds canny.

Unbelievable Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Terrorising staff when robbing a bookie seems par of the course.
