EW Airline Code: Eurowings IATA & ICAO
Eurowings is stored in this dataset as IATA code EW and ICAO code EWG, based in Germany. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.
Overview
EW is the IATA airline designator stored for Eurowings. ICAO is EWG. Country of record: Germany. On a cryptic GDS line the IATA code sits immediately before the flight number, for example EW 456. Agents should not confuse EW (two characters, sometimes a digit such as 6E) with EWG (three letters). This code page does not list routes, alliances, baggage rules, or fleet. Those facts are not in the dataset. Other Germany carriers stored here: LH (Lufthansa). To decode a full itinerary that markets EW, paste the PNR into the parser.
How to use this page
- Find EW 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 Eurowings.
- Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.
Example
