SU Airline Code: Aeroflot IATA & ICAO

Aeroflot is stored in this dataset as IATA code SU and ICAO code AFL, based in Russia. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.

Overview

SU is the IATA airline designator stored for Aeroflot. ICAO is AFL. Country of record: Russia. On a cryptic GDS line the IATA code sits immediately before the flight number, for example SU 456. Agents should not confuse SU (two characters, sometimes a digit such as 6E) with AFL (three letters). This code page does not list routes, alliances, baggage rules, or fleet. Those facts are not in the dataset. Other Russia carriers stored here: S7 (S7 Airlines). To decode a full itinerary that markets SU, paste the PNR into the parser.

How to use this page

  1. Find SU at the start of the flight line in the PNR.
  2. Paste the full itinerary into the PNR parser (or the GDS-specific parser if you know the host).
  3. Confirm the carrier name resolves to Aeroflot.
  4. Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.

Example

Example segment: 2 SU 456 H 26OCT 5 WLGAKL HK1 1945 2050 The parser should set marketing carrier SU (Aeroflot) and flight 456. Class H is a fare bucket, not proof of cabin without the booking-class tool.
