NYC City Code: New York IATA Airports
NYC identifies the city of New York, United States, in IATA coding. Airport codes in this dataset for that city: JFK, EWR, LGA. A city code is not always the same as an airport code.
Overview
NYC is the IATA city code stored for New York, United States (US). City codes group one or more airports. NYC is a metro code covering JFK, EWR, LGA. That is different from using a single airport as if it were the city. Airport names stored: JFK John F. Kennedy International Airport; EWR Newark Liberty International Airport; LGA LaGuardia 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 NYC or New York 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 client says they fly into NYC. Ask which airport: JFK, EWR, LGA. A PNR segment will show one of those airport codes, not always NYC.
