Weather wise it seems they made the right mistake.

In a similar vein, apparently there is a 24 hour staffed desk in the Sydney, Australia to help people that meant to go to Austria.

ETA: Apparently this is fake new that spread on social media

What about the episode of full house where Michelle and Stephanie went to Auckland New Zealand opposed to Oakland California.

Who among us hasn't made that mistake of going on a 15 hour flight rather than a 20 minute car ride.

Yep. I’m gonna have to look up why they were even getting on a plane to Oakland in the first place.

They weren't. They were meeting DJ in the airport when she was coming home from Spain, and they met a kid at the next gate. They decided to walk on the plane to see the kid off, and they closed the doors while they were still on the plane. When the kid told them the plane was going to Auckland, they mistakenly heard "Oakland" and thought they'd be on the ground in 20 minutes.

Every decade or so somebody shows up in Birmingham AL but were trying to go to Birmingham UK. A bit of a culture shock. But I guess they're dumbasses anyhow.

Portland OR and ME is another tricky one.

Oregon is PDX
Maine is PWM

Or you can use POR and end up in Pori, Finland.

As a trucker, we had one of our drivers show up at Gainesville Florida only to find out he was supposed to be delivering in Gainesville Goergia

My friend’s wife went into labor early he quickly booked a flight to Portland ME, but accidentally booked it for Portland, OR. He realized his mistake at DFW.
