If you're talking about the soccer player, it should be spelled "Cristiano."

Do you know the city closest to the airport there? Type it in and you'll still get the answer.

I'll add Port Louis as a type-in, too, since the entire width of the island is less than the distance between some of these airports and the major cities they are said to service.

If QM ever decides to feature this, though, maybe he could swap that answer for Cristofor Colombo airport in Genoa, Italy. The name's not as much fun but it would likely be guessed more often.

Could 'Orange' and 'Orange County' be accepted for John Wayne? I know it's not strictly speaking a city, but that is the most common way it's referred to...

Sure. Why not? I already have Santa Ana accepted as a type-in, as that's the city where the airport is actually located.

Madeira is not a city. Well, it is in Ohio, but that one is not served by the airport in question.

Hello! This was an interesting quiz; but do note that Las Vegas' airport is now named after Harry Reid (former Senate Majority Leader) instead of Pat McCarran because of McCarran's inflammatory rhetoric against minorities at the time.
