Wonder how that was achieved and will it be a benefit to Teeside.
Not sure which website you were on so I can't check, but I'll hazard a guess it'll be down to the website listing airports by IATA code rather than name. Teesside's is MME - something to do with the airfield's previous name of RAF Middleton St George. One way to check might be to see if London Stansted (STN) is listed before or after is after somewhere like Manchester (MAN)?
