Turkish Airlines (TK): Airline Code for GDS PNRs

Turkish Airlines is stored in this dataset as IATA code TK and ICAO code THY, based in Turkey. GDS segment lines print the IATA code before the flight number. Live routes, fares and baggage policies are not in this dataset.

Overview

Turkish Airlines is stored as IATA TK and ICAO THY, country Turkey. The converter maps marketing carrier TK to this name when the code exists in the airline table. A typical segment starts with TK 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 Turkey in this catalog: PC (Pegasus Airlines). Use PNR to WhatsApp or PNR to PDF after parsing if you need a customer-facing copy of a booking that includes TK.

How to use this page

  1. Find TK 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 Turkish Airlines.
  4. Do not add baggage or meal claims that the PNR did not print.

Example

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