DFW Airport Code: Dallas Airport IATA & ICAO

Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) is stored for Dallas, United States. ICAO KDFW. Timezone America/Chicago. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

DFW is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in Dallas, United States (US). The matching ICAO identifier is KDFW. Travel agents see DFW on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example DFWLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO KDFW 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 America/Chicago. This code page explains how DFW 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 United States: JFK (New York), EWR (Newark), LGA (New York), LAX (Los Angeles), SFO (San Francisco). Related IATA city code in this dataset: DFW. To turn a booked PNR that contains DFW into a customer itinerary, paste the cryptic text into the PNR parser.

Example

Example GDS segment using this airport as origin: 2 AI 101 J 12OCT 1 DFWLHR HK1 0945 1510 12OCT E The parser should read DFW as departure. Times 0945/1510 are local as printed, not converted to your PC clock. If DFW is missing from the dataset, city and timezone enrichment stay empty rather than guessed.
