MSP Airport Code: Minneapolis Airport IATA & ICAO

Overview

MSP is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport in Minneapolis, United States (US). The matching ICAO identifier is KMSP. Travel agents see MSP on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example MSPLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO KMSP 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 MSP 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: MSP. To turn a booked PNR that contains MSP 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 MSPLHR HK1 0945 1510 12OCT E The parser should read MSP as departure. Times 0945/1510 are local as printed, not converted to your PC clock. If MSP is missing from the dataset, city and timezone enrichment stay empty rather than guessed.
