That's a cool detail I completely missed.
One problem with two of the labs is that you have to have pull the card to Recon and be in a situation where you can get to the city. As soon as Johannesburg was revealed, I thought one blue city in the middle of yellow seemed important enough to search. But, it took months before we had the opportunity.
At the end of the game we had about 8 cities that hadn't been searched. It could've easily been either of the lab cities.
As soon as we were given the coordinates, I looked them up, so I was pretty confident what the cities were. I also added removable stickers to the board marking the approximate locations. I can't say it made any great difference - but we certainly never forgot that they were out there.
And, like you, getting to Jo'burg was one thing; pulling the card once we we'd connected it was another entirely. I think we finally got to search it in October.
