Questions related to
Airports (and Answers)
What are the 3-letter Airport codes
An IATA airport code, also known as an IATA location identifier, IATA station code or simply a location identifier,
[1]
is a three-letter geocode designating many airports and metropolitan areas around the world, defined by the
International Air Transport Association (IATA). The characters prominently displayed on baggage tags attached
at airport check-in desks are an example of a way these codes are used. Most codes are common sensical;
New York's Kennedy International is JFK, Denver is DEN, Boston is BOS and Dallas-Ft. Worth is DFW.
How are airport codes decided
The three-letter code is determined by first ensuring that it's unique
and not in use by any other entity. The code might be assigned
based on the name of the airport, the name of the city, or some
other meaningful and relevant identifier if those letters are already
taken.
Why are Airport codes unique
1 Airport codes are unique because they are
special codes in identifying a specific
airport. Same airport codes would mix up
the identities of the different airports.

2 They are unique also so that they do not

cause any problems or confusion related
to the identification of a particular airport
(eg. passengers being confused between
two airports of same IATA code for
bookings).
Which is the most beautiful airport in the world
Terminal 3 is home to Changi's butterfly garden, an 18-foot waterfall, a huge
indoor playground, a movie theater, TV lounges and the "Slide@T3," a four-
story spiral slide that's a lot more fun than taking the elevator. The other
terminals join in the theme of combining indoor and outdoor spaces, with
more gardens and even an outdoor swimming pool available to the public.
Why do airports in
Canada start with Y
Rather than each Canadian airport
completely renaming their codes to
match the name of the airport or city
they served, they simply added a 'Y' to
the front of each 2 letter code, with the Y
indicating that each airport was
Canadian.
