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