ZQN Airport Code: Queenstown Airport IATA & ICAO

Queenstown Airport (ZQN) is stored for Queenstown, New Zealand. ICAO NZQN. Timezone Pacific/Auckland. This page does not list live flights, fares or terminals.

Overview

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

How to use this page

Confirm the three-letter token on the ticket or PNR is ZQN, not a similar code.
Open the PNR parser and paste the full itinerary that contains ZQN.
Convert and check that city and timezone match this record.
Use the airport-code page if you only need IATA versus ICAO for ZQN.
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 ZQNLHR HK1 0945 1510 12OCT E The parser should read ZQN as departure. Times 0945/1510 are local as printed, not converted to your PC clock. If ZQN is missing from the dataset, city and timezone enrichment stay empty rather than guessed.
