KIX City Code: Osaka IATA Airports

KIX identifies the city of Osaka, Japan, in IATA coding. Airport codes in this dataset for that city: KIX. A city code is not always the same as an airport code.

Overview

KIX is the IATA city code stored for Osaka, Japan (JP). City codes group one or more airports. In this dataset KIX is aligned with airport KIX. Some cities share the airport code; others (NYC, LON, TYO) do not. Airport names stored: KIX Kansai International Airport. GDS availability and some pricing entries use the city code when the traveller can use any airport in the metro. Ticketed segments still print a specific airport such as JFK rather than NYC. This page does not list every airfield in the metropolitan area, only rows in the catalog. Timezone and ICAO live on each airport page.

How to use this page

  1. Search KIX or Osaka in the city code finder.
  2. Open each airport page for ICAO and timezone.
  3. Parse the actual PNR to see which airport was ticketed.

Example

Example: a PNR city pair may use KIX as the airport. If a host screen shows city KIX, confirm it matches this metro before quoting.
