JFK Airport Code: New York Airport IATA & ICAO

John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) is stored for New York, United States. ICAO KJFK. Timezone America/New_York. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

JFK is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, United States (US). The matching ICAO identifier is KJFK. Travel agents see JFK on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example JFKLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO KJFK 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/New_York. This code page explains how JFK 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: EWR (Newark), LGA (New York), LAX (Los Angeles), SFO (San Francisco), ORD (Chicago). Related IATA city code in this dataset: NYC. To turn a booked PNR that contains JFK 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 JFKLHR HK1 0945 1510 12OCT E The parser should read JFK as departure. Times 0945/1510 are local as printed, not converted to your PC clock. If JFK is missing from the dataset, city and timezone enrichment stay empty rather than guessed.
