IATA Codes
IATA Codes are three-letter designations assigned to airports and airlines around the world by the International Air Transport Association. These codes help simplify communication and reduce confusion in the aviation industry, making it easier for travelers and airlines to identify specific locations and carriers.
For example, the IATA Code for Los Angeles International Airport is LAX, while the code for American Airlines is AA. Each code is unique, ensuring that no two airports or airlines share the same identifier, which is crucial for ticketing, baggage handling, and flight operations.
