📚 Understanding Airport Codes
IATA Codes
Three-letter codes (like JFK) used on boarding passes, baggage tags, and flight displays. Assigned by the International Air Transport Association.
ICAO Codes
Four-letter codes (like KJFK) used by air traffic control and pilots. Assigned by the International Civil Aviation Organization for precise identification.
Why They Matter
Airport codes ensure clear communication in global aviation. Each code uniquely identifies an airport, preventing confusion between similarly named locations.

About Airport Code Guide
Airport Code Guide is a free reference directory covering over 4,401 airports across 236 countries. Every airport in our database has a dedicated page with its IATA code (the three-letter code on your boarding pass), ICAO code (the four-letter code used by pilots and air traffic controllers), GPS coordinates, runway information, elevation, local time, and live weather conditions.
Airport codes exist to eliminate ambiguity in global aviation. Dozens of cities share similar names, and hundreds of airports have changed names over the years — but each code is unique and permanent. Whether you're a traveler trying to decode a baggage tag, an aviation professional verifying a flight plan identifier, or simply curious about a remote airstrip, this site gives you the data you need in one place.
