Cincinnati Airport - 'CVG' ... " Florence Y'All "

Wikipedia describes ...

Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport (IATA: CVG) is located in Hebron, unincorporated Boone County, Kentucky, United States and serves the Greater Cincinnati metropolitan area.
The first airplane landed at the airport January 10, 1947.
Despite being located in Boone County, the airport operations are governed by the neighboring Kenton County Airport Board.
The airport's code, CVG, comes from the nearest major city at the time of its opening, Covington, Kentucky, although the airport authority likes to say it stands for "Cincinnati Very Good."



What Ju says ... Hey, I'm on my way home!
When... I left at Cincinnati local time = Friday 15th Feb, 11am

Funny...
(1) Had a fun conversation with the limo driver that brought us from Belterra to the airport, a one hour ride. "Florence, Y'all" and "WKRP in Cincinatti" spring to mind :-)



(2) The United Air / Skyways stewardress introduced herself as Angelina Jolie on the short 1 hr 20 mins flight between Cinc-Chicago O'Hare, and the pilots as Brad Pitt and George Clooney!
