AZ Airline Code: ITA Airways IATA & ICAO
ITA Airways is stored in this dataset as IATA code AZ and ICAO code ITY, based in Italy. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.
Overview
AZ is the IATA airline designator stored for ITA Airways. ICAO is ITY. Country of record: Italy. On a cryptic GDS line the IATA code sits immediately before the flight number, for example AZ 456. Agents should not confuse AZ (two characters, sometimes a digit such as 6E) with ITY (three letters). This code page does not list routes, alliances, baggage rules, or fleet. Those facts are not in the dataset. Other Italy carriers stored here: none stored. To decode a full itinerary that markets AZ, paste the PNR into the parser.
How to use this page
- Find AZ at the start of the flight line in the PNR.
- Paste the full itinerary into the PNR parser (or the GDS-specific parser if you know the host).
- Confirm the carrier name resolves to ITA Airways.
- Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.
Example
Example segment: 2 AZ 456 H 26OCT 5 WLGAKL HK1 1945 2050 The parser should set marketing carrier AZ (ITA Airways) and flight 456. Class H is a fare bucket, not proof of cabin without the booking-class tool.
