Apparently it's going to be Durham - Tees Valley International. I guess Teesside just tripped off the tongue too easily......

Why not Reeves & Mortimer International?

Is this the airport that serves Middlesbrough?

It is - although it's called TeesSide. Mind you Middlesbrough is sometimes spelt: Boro :

Thanks for the info brabazon and also the tip on spelling variations for "Middlesboro". One question; why not Middlesborough?
