DXB Airport Code: Dubai Airport IATA & ICAO

Dubai International Airport (DXB) is stored for Dubai, United Arab Emirates. ICAO OMDB. Timezone Asia/Dubai. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

DXB is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Dubai International Airport in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (AE). The matching ICAO identifier is OMDB. Travel agents see DXB on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example DXBLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO OMDB 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 Asia/Dubai. This code page explains how DXB 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 Arab Emirates: DWC (Dubai), AUH (Abu Dhabi), SHJ (Sharjah). Related IATA city code in this dataset: DXB. To turn a booked PNR that contains DXB into a customer itinerary, paste the cryptic text into the PNR parser.

How to use this page

  1. Confirm the three-letter token on the ticket or PNR is DXB, not a similar code.
  2. Open the PNR parser and paste the full itinerary that contains DXB.
  3. Convert and check that city and timezone match this record.
  4. Use the airport-code page if you only need IATA versus ICAO for DXB.
  5. Do not copy terminal or lounge claims from other websites onto this page. They are not stored here.

Example

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