Does anyone have a list of the abbreviations for the airports or can you tell me where to find the details i.e. LHR or HK, I know these two are London Heathrow and Hong Kong but many of the others are unfamiliar to me.
Here is a list: Airport codes
You can also search directly on the IATA website: IATA - Codes - Airline and Airport Codes Search

I generally go here first: Airport Code Database Search
You can also use the GCmap locations search.
Search for Locations - Great Circle Mapper
Bung in a name or a code and off you go- you can also use wildcards.
