MAD City Code: Madrid IATA Airports
MAD identifies the city of Madrid, Spain, in IATA coding. Airport codes in this dataset for that city: MAD. A city code is not always the same as an airport code.
Overview
MAD is the IATA city code stored for Madrid, Spain (ES). City codes group one or more airports. In this dataset MAD is aligned with airport MAD. Some cities share the airport code; others (NYC, LON, TYO) do not. Airport names stored: MAD Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas 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
- Search MAD or Madrid in the city code finder.
- Open each airport page for ICAO and timezone.
- Parse the actual PNR to see which airport was ticketed.
Example
Example: a PNR city pair may use MAD as the airport. If a host screen shows city MAD, confirm it matches this metro before quoting.
