"Intermediate destination" is an oxymoron, so that's not much help. Nice as the cities are, Atlanta, DFW, Houston, Chicago, Detroit and Minneapolis are not destinations. They are layovers, hubs, stops, whatever. But not destinations, except for those getting off the plane. A destination is
the place you're going, not a location you happen to pass through on your way. You're either at your destination or you're not.
But maybe you're getting all quantum on me, and want to tell me about your infinity of intermediate destinations.
