PTY City Code: Panama City IATA Airports
PTY identifies the city of Panama City, Panama, in IATA coding. Airport codes in this dataset for that city: PTY. A city code is not always the same as an airport code.
Overview
PTY is the IATA city code stored for Panama City, Panama (PA). City codes group one or more airports. In this dataset PTY is aligned with airport PTY. Some cities share the airport code; others (NYC, LON, TYO) do not. Airport names stored: PTY Tocumen 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

Example
