They also regulate the shipping of dangerous goods and publish the IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations manual, a globally accepted field source reference for airlines shipping hazardous materials.
FLY is the IATAcode for Finley in Australia, EVE for Evenes in Norway, TOY for Toyama in Japan, DAY for Dayton in Ohio, United States, and NYC for sure, New York City.
IATA's mission is to represent and serve the airline industry.
IATA's Head Office is in Montreal; its main executive office is in Geneva.
An IATAairport code, known by the IATA as an IATA location identifier or, simply, a location identifier [1], is a three-letter alphabetic code designating many airports around the world.
The assignment of these codes is governed by IATA Resolution 767, and it is administered by IATA headquarters in Montreal.
While the IATA codes are the most familiar airport codes to airline passengers, the 4-letter ICAO airport codes are becoming increasingly common within aviation.
