Swiss International Air Lines (LX): Airline Code for GDS PNRs
Swiss International Air Lines is stored in this dataset as IATA code LX and ICAO code SWR, based in Switzerland. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.
Overview
Swiss International Air Lines is stored as IATA LX and ICAO SWR, country Switzerland. The converter maps marketing carrier LX to this name when the code exists in the airline table. A typical segment starts with LX 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 Switzerland in this catalog: none stored. Use PNR to WhatsApp or PNR to PDF after parsing if you need a customer-facing copy of a booking that includes LX.
