Sioux City promotes "Fly SUX"

:rofl:

If Teddy can handle the fix names around him, so can Sioux City.
 
Yep, they weren't kidding... carry on! :D

Not That There's Anything Wrong With That!

"City leaders have scrapped plans to do away with the Sioux Gateway Airport's unflattering three-letter identifier--SUX--and instead have made it the centerpiece of the airport's new marketing campaign," the Associated Press reports from Sioux City Iowa:
The code, used by pilots and airports worldwide and printed on tickets and luggage tags, will be used on T-shirts and caps sporting the airport's new slogan, "FLY SUX." It also forms the address of the airport's redesigned Web site--http://www.flysux.com.​

Sioux City officials petitioned the Federal Aviation Administration to change the code in 1988 and 2002. At one point, the FAA offered the city five alternatives--GWU, GYO, GYT, SGV and GAY--but airport trustees turned them down.​
Quips the State29 blog, "At least it's not GAY."

It's a short flight, but KCUT the KRAP is rather satisfying ... ;-)
 
Now if they are promoting flying scheduled carriers our to Sioux City, shouldn't the phrase be "Flying SUX".
