When using various travel web sites it is sometimes quicker to use the actual three letter airport designations that the airlines use. TIP: Use this web site as a resource to know what the three letter designations are for your travels: www.airport-technology.com/codes
Do you have the airport designations for: Rome, Italy’s Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport, and also for Catania-Palermo, Sicily?
Rome, Italy’s Leonardo Da Vinci International Airport, was formerly known as Fiumicino International FCO. It was renamed — the airport code does not change even if an airport is renamed.
Catania, Sicily is CTA and Palermo, Sicily is PMO. Hope this helps.

Gerald R Ford International Airport was formerly known as Kent County International airport and serves the Grand Rapids, Michigan area with the three letter code, GRR.
