AIRPORT CODES
An airport code is a three
letter designator for a commercial airport, or other transport terminus such
as a large bus station. These are the codes that airlines and pilots use to
identify airports and are used in timetables, baggage tags, tickets,
and advertisements. They are also used in air ticketing
reservation systems. So it can be handy to know them when you are
researching airfares online.
