Originally Posted By melekalikimaka Most likely PDX or SeaTac. When I was a kid we flew back and forth to Alaska a *lot*. We used to fly Reeve's airline. (I think that's what it was called.) The planes were scary, scarier when my mom used to fly on that airline as a child. It's possible that first airport I flew out of was the Anchorage airport, but I was born in Oregon and I highly doubt my mom ever drove the ALCAN.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I have no idea where I was going, or if it was even the first place, but I assume my first flight was from Des Moines. It was probably to Chicago to transfer, but I have no idea where to from there. Most likely to my grandma's house, which always included a trip to Disneyland. Interesting how many first flight stories seem to be linked to Disney here. I wonder if it's a sign...

Originally Posted By avromark Well if you count back the weeks from when I was born, you would never guess where my parents were at the time. I went to 2 continents before I was a year old. This year I only went to 3 countries. C'est la vie. One of those countries I live in, and one of those countries is only 2 hours away.

Originally Posted By sherrytodd Well, technically it was Ryan Field outside of Tucson, AZ. My dad is a flight instructor and I used to go fly with him when I was a kid. The first time we flew on a jet was out of the Tucson Airport.
Originally Posted By officerminnie When I was really little - maybe 4 or 5 - my dad rented planes and took us on short flights out of a little airport in Tacoma that I can only recall as being named "Oswald's". That doesn't seem like a proper name for an airport, but hey, it was small. It is no longer there, haveing been replaced years ago by a strip mall, movie theaters and a post office. For commercial planes, it was the always enjoyable SeaTac, first time when I was about 9.
