WLG Airport Code: Wellington Airport IATA & ICAO

Wellington International Airport (WLG) is stored for Wellington, New Zealand. ICAO NZWN. Timezone Pacific/Auckland. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

WLG is the IATA airport code stored in this dataset for Wellington International Airport in Wellington, New Zealand (NZ). The matching ICAO identifier is NZWN. Travel agents see WLG on tickets, baggage tags, and GDS segment city pairs (six letters, for example WLGLHR when the other airport is London Heathrow). ICAO NZWN 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 Pacific/Auckland. This code page explains how WLG 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 New Zealand: AKL (Auckland), CHC (Christchurch), ZQN (Queenstown). Related IATA city code in this dataset: WLG. To turn a booked PNR that contains WLG into a customer itinerary, paste the cryptic text into the PNR parser.

Example
