Overview

BCN is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport in Barcelona, Spain (ES). The matching ICAO identifier is LEBL. Travel agents see BCN on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example BCNLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO LEBL is used in flight plans and ATC, not as the two-or-three-character GDS city-pair token. The IANA timezone recorded for local GDS times at this airport is Europe/Madrid. This code page explains how BCN is used in PNR text. It is not a live departures board. Terminal maps, contact phone numbers, lounge lists, and published flight schedules are not available in this dataset and are not invented here. Nearby airports stored for Spain: MAD (Madrid), AGP (Malaga), PMI (Palma). Related IATA city code in this dataset: BCN. To turn a booked PNR that contains BCN into a customer itinerary, paste the cryptic text into the PNR parser.
