IATA Airline and Location Codes
IATA Codes are an integral part
of the travel industry and
essential for the identification
of an airline, its destinations
and its traffic documents. They
are also fundamental to the
smooth running of hundreds of
electronic applications which
have been built around these
coding systems for passenger and
cargo traffic purposes. |
Airline Designator Codes: Those
companies assigned an IATA
Airline Designator Code are to
use such designators
for reservations, schedules,
timetables, telecommunications,
ticketing, cargo documentation,
legal, tariffs and/or other
commercial/traffic purposes. |
Airline accounting codes and
airline prefixes are essential
for the identification of
passenger and cargo traffic
documents, processing of
passenger accounting
transactions, cargo transactions
and other commercial/traffic
purposes. |
Baggage tag issuer codes,
combined with the tag serial
number, are used to identify
each piece of checked
luggage through all baggage
handling processes. They help
provide a unique identifier
during the complete journey.
This unique identifier forms the
basis of what is known as the
ˇ°License Plateˇ±. |
Airlines and CRSs may request
the assignment of a unique
three-letter code to identify a
location like an airport.
Bus or ferry stations may be
eligible for an IATA location
identifier if these locations
are involved in intermodal
airline travel. |
IATA is one of the many
barcode formats currently in
use. |
A Barcode is a method of
representing data in a visual,
machine-readable form. |
The barcode formats has two
categories: |
One-dimensional (1D) ---
Barcodes represented data by
varying the widths and spacings
of parallel lines. |
Two-dimensional (2D) --- Using
rectangles, dots, hexagons and
other geometric patterns to
represented data. |
IATA is 1D barcode.
IATA is variable with
no fixed length. |
 |
|
Human Readable:
Most barcodes display their
corresponding values below them,
which makes it possible to human
read and manually enter
the barcode values into the
equivalent system when the
barcode label is worn out and
cannot be read by the barcode
scanner. |
The Advantages of using
barcodes:
If you want to reduce costs and
save time, using barcodes is a
good choice. Whether you are a
company or a non-commercial
organization, to improve
efficiency and reduce overhead,
barcodes are a valuable and
viable option, which is
economical and reliable.
Using Barcode system eliminates
the possibility of human error.
The error rate of manually
entering data is
significantly higher than that
of scan barcodes. Barcode
scanning is fast and reliable,
and it takes much less time than
manual data entry. Especially
when using a QR code, hundreds
of characters can be read and
entered into your system
instantly.
When barcodes are used in
management information systems,
they can promote better
decision-making. Because data is
obtained quickly and accurately,
you can quickly obtain a full
range of information for the
entire company or organization,
so it is possible to make more
informed decisions. Better
decisions can ultimately save
time and money.
Barcodes are cheap and
user-friendly, providing an
indispensable tool for tracking
data from pricing to inventory.
The end result of a
comprehensive bar code system is
reduced overhead. |

FAQ About IATA Barcode |
|
What is the
historical origin of the IATA barcode? |
The IATA barcode
is a graphical identifier used to represent air transportation
information. It is developed and managed by the International
Air Transport Association (IATA). |
|
In what industries
are IATA barcodes mainly used? |
The application
of IATA barcodes is mainly in the field of air transportation,
used to represent airlines, airports, flights, luggage, cargo
and other information.
For example, an
airline code is two letters or a combination of numbers and
letters assigned by IATA to identify different airlines.
In addition, IATA
has also formulated the Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) for
the transport of dangerous goods by air, which are used to
regulate the packaging, labeling, transportation and other
requirements of dangerous goods.
An example of an
application for IATA barcodes is the Dangerous Goods Regulations
(DGR), which regulate how dangerous goods (such as flammable,
corrosive, explosive or radioactive materials) can be safely
transported by air.
IATA barcodes can
help identify dangerous goods categories, packaging
requirements, labels and documentation. For example, UN 1950 is
an IATA barcode used to identify aerosol cans, which are Class 2
dangerous goods (gases). |
|
What is the
two-letter airline code? |
The two-letter
airline code is a combination of two letters or numbers and
letters assigned to airlines around the world by the
International Air Transport Association (IATA). It is used to
identify different airlines.
For example, the
two-letter code of Air China is CA.
The two-character
airline code is used for commercial purposes such as
reservations, timetables, ticketing, taxation, and air bills of
lading. |
|
Structural features
of IATA barcodes |
The IATA barcode
is a coding system used to identify airlines, destinations and
transportation documents.
Its structural
features are:
A 10-digit or
13-digit barcode consists of an airline code of two letters or a
combination of numbers and letters, plus a digit ticket number.
Using the coding
rules of 39 codes or 128 codes, it has high reliability and
accuracy.
Data can be
quickly read via a scanner or mobile phone camera.
For example:
CA1234567890 is
the IATA barcode of Air China.
LH9876543210 is
the IATA barcode of Lufthansa. |
|
Who developed the
IATA barcode standards? Why develop this standard?
|
The IATA barcode
standard was developed by the International Air Transport
Association (IATA) to unify and standardize the identification,
communication and application of the air transport industry.
IATA barcode
standards include airline and location codes, dangerous goods
regulations, bill encoding, etc.
The reason for
formulating this standard is to improve the safety, efficiency
and quality of air transportation. |
|
What is the
difference between IATA barcodes and other barcodes?
|
IATA barcodes are
specifically used in the air transport industry, while other
barcodes can be used in different fields, such as commodities,
books, express delivery, etc.
The first two
digits of the IATA barcode are the airline code, while the first
two digits of other barcodes are usually the country or region
code.
The length of
IATA barcode is 10 or 13 digits, while the length of other
barcodes can have different specifications, such as 8 digits, 12
digits, 18 digits, etc. |
|
Which airlines
use IATA barcodes?
|
There are many
airlines using IATA barcodes, covering almost all airlines in
the world. For example:
United Airlines'
IATA barcode is UA.
Lufthansa's IATA
barcode is LH.
Singapore
Airlines' IATA barcode is SQ.
The IATA barcode
of Air China (Air China) is CA. |
|
What are the
advantages and disadvantages of IATA barcodes?
|
Advantage:
The input speed
is fast, enabling instant data input.
High reliability
and low data error rate.
Facilitates
unified management of air transportation tickets, baggage,
cargo, etc.
Shortcoming:
It is necessary
to comply with IATA's rules and standards and cannot be changed
or innovated at will.
Special scanning
equipment and software are required and the cost is high.
May be affected
by environmental factors such as dirt, wear, light, etc.. |
