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