I used to work at Hipmunk, stayed until it got shot down. SAP Concur approached us to use our auto-completion algorithm/database to power their new UI or whatever. Apparently the 2 or 3 different DB they already had for that exact use case were not good enough. Our result were sorted by population size of the destination, The concur people could not believe it was that only that.
