I just landed in Houston at the George Bush International Airport (on my way to Port of Spain for business) and started to think... which airport will be named for President Obama?
Both Chicago airports already have names along with Washington.
How about Honolulu?

I flew on ship # 055, the Star Alliance 764 BTW.
Pull back and the houses get smaller!
Inter*continental* airport. Everything's bigger in Texas, or something. Midway isn't actually named for a person, and it's close to where he lived in Hyde Park, but whoever decides to do it, I hope they wait until it's appropriate. I don't like the practice of naming things after living people, especially in the silly arms race of the last decade when such "luminaries" as Trent Lott, Norm Mineta, Ted Stevens, and Tom Ridge all had airports named after them.
Define irony: Naming an airport after the President who fired the Air Traffic Controllers.

Don't forget, Little Rock will soon be known as Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport.Originally Posted by Mateo
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9
Wouldn't it be easier just to name it Clinton National Airport?
Do you think Hillary makes anything easy?
The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Crap".
"Hey, hey!! I want my name on the airport too!"
"What exactly did you do to deserve-"
"IT DOESN'T MATTER! I AM HILLARY CLINTON AND I WAS CO-PRESIDENT!!!!"
"You do know it's almost unheard of to name something after two people like this? Bill and Hillary? Usually there's a dash and...-"
"SHUT UP AND GET IT DONE!!!!!"
