  “It’s a matter of acronyms. The S-Y-D as opposed to S-D-Y. Somebody has to fix that,” Burnett said, explaining how a mix-up over airport codes had led to his unfortunate mistake that had landed him in Billings, Montana, as a tiny jet waited to make his connection to the wrong Sydney.  
  Burnett also admitted to the TV station that he had been trying to be frugal for his trip and been pleasantly surprised at the cheapness of the flight he had found for his planned trip halfway across the globe.
  
  OK, not the dumbest example of America's failed geography curriculum and lack of critical thinking I've seen, but its close. >
  
  “Someone should fix that” 
  Yea, that someone is you.
  So for this to happen he has to not only book a ticket to the wrong Sydney, he has to switch planes in Billings which doesn’t raise any alarms when he books it.
  When he boards the first flight they don’t check his passport and they make a big announcement hey we are going to BILLINGS MONTANA. The departure board says BILLINGS MONTANA.
  From where I live in Washington DC I need to switch planes twice to even get to Billings and it says MONTANA when I put the SDY code in to try and buy a ticket. 
  Definitely the kind of mistake you make if you can’t read. Because there are like a million points where it says MONTANA and if you are literate you say hold on I want Australia. >
  
  Even the flight duration..
  It didn't occur to him that it was strange a trip to Australia took less time than flying across the country? >
  
  Knowing what the flight duration is requires reading your itinerary and ticket. >
  
  I remember a Californian who tried to fly to Oakland and ended up in Auckland. That actually seemed like a good deal, though. >
  
  Or another Californian who ended up in San Jose in Costa Rica instead California. In this case though it was a gate agent issue. He realized he was on the wrong flight when the coast was on the wrong side of the plane. >
  
  I once tried to fly to Columbus, OH but ended up in Columbus, GA!
  It was a work trip and the travel agent we used got it mixed up and sent me to the wrong place. >
  
  Cool. Hope he made sure to hit up The Cattle-ac while there. >
  
  I get it. Sometimes when I'm grilling food I mix up marinate and urinate
