This Wordle for Airport Codes Is the Best Way to Kill Time Before Your Flight

You might think that reducing a five-letter challenge to a three-letter one would make this version of Wordle easier. But considering Airportle draws from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) list of airport codes from all over the world, it poses a serious challenge for even the most seasoned travelers—and makes for a particularly great way to pass the time next time you find yourself twiddling your thumbs at, say, LAX, JFK, or ATL.

Like Wordle, Airportle only issues one challenge per day, meaning there’s no risk of getting caught up in a hot streak and missing your flight. But if you do have time for a few extra rounds, check out some of the other spinoffs, too, like Taylordle for Taylor Swift Fans, BRDL for bird lovers, and Sweardle for potty mouths. Pro tip: You can also play Wordle in other languages, so maybe consider brushing up on the mother tongue of wherever it is you’re traveling.
