Azul Brazilian Airlines (AD): Airline Code for GDS PNRs

Azul Brazilian Airlines is stored in this dataset as IATA code AD and ICAO code AZU, based in Brazil. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.

Overview

Azul Brazilian Airlines is stored as IATA AD and ICAO AZU, country Brazil. The converter maps marketing carrier AD to this name when the code exists in the airline table. A typical segment starts with AD plus a numeric flight number and a booking class letter. This article is not an airline homepage: schedules, change fees, and loyalty rules are omitted because they are not stored and must not be invented. Peer carriers from Brazil in this catalog: G3 (GOL Linhas Aéreas), JJ (LATAM Brasil). Use PNR to WhatsApp or PNR to PDF after parsing if you need a customer-facing copy of a booking that includes AD.

How to use this page

  1. Find AD 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 Azul Brazilian Airlines.
  4. Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.
