Google's new flight-search tool has hit turbulence on its first day with an embarrassing blooper that has flights to New York's World Trade Center in the site's search suggestions.

Typing in "New York" as the destination, Google auto-suggests several locations in the city, including John F. Kennedy International Airport and La Guardia Airport.

The site also displays the city's World Trade Center as a destination, with a note saying flights are "unavailable".

I see flights are also unavaliable to the 39th Street ferry terminal and to Flushing (thank God!).

As far as I know, there were only ever two flights whose destination was WTC, and that was only because of a last-minute change.

However, WTC is still a NYC destination, by PATH train from NJ; the subway lines will be back in service in the next couple of years, but even now you can still get to a station within a couple of blocks of the site.
