Thx robc, i try to read up on the info before correcting someone next time

Dont worry about we all make mistakes:D

I would like to offer my apology, i am wrong IATA codes are three letters and ICAO are four letters, i apologise i was confused on that subject.

Also when your talking the name of airlines IATA are two letters and ICAO are three.
Example:
Air Malta
IATA: KM
ICAO: AMC

Once again im sorry!

Sorry Dartie, you’re incorrect.
IATA codes are 3 letter (eg BHX, LGW, LTN, MAN etc.)
ICAO codes are 4 letter (eg EGBB, EGKK, EGGW, EGCC etc.)

Yep, I agree

Moondance

You are correct.

Moondance – thank you for confirming – I thought I was going daft!!

Dartie – click on the link below – it shows London Gatwick’s IATA code and ICAO code.

Yeah – well I think that they are a good company to work for anyway and I think most others would agree. Monarch has a very low staff turnover. A number of people have been there for a lot of years. In the staff magazine, we frequently read about staff receiving their 12 years service or 25 years service presentations – that’s got to say something for itself.

Sorry to all who may have noticed that this thread has gone off-topic!

Thanks D,

Is it a good company to work for?

I’m going in

We’re all three, although low cost (with frills) is simply built in to the scheduled operation. Primarily, we are a charter airline flying IT routes for tour operators and of course ad-hoc charters. Secondly, we are a successful operator in the scheduled market and have been for over 16 years now. The scheduled operation began at LTN many moons ago but as you know, we now operate ever-expanding services from MAN and LGW.

Have a look www.flymonarch.com

I don’t work for bmibaby, just interested in where ZB sees itself. Is it charter, schedule or low cost?

I’m going in

I’ll wait until any new routes are announced by Monarch before I add to the list. 🙂

Good luck to bmibaby on their new routes to BCN and PRG (did I hear CDG as well?). Good luck also with the Tees-side operation.

You never did answer the question about your position at bmibaby?

CMH is actually the ICAO code for Columbus – Port Columbus International and the IATA for this airport is KCMH.

Well thats they it has been, IATA – four letters, ICAO- three letters. I checked it up on airlinerworld.com when u go in to flight log and submit a flight in gives u an option to type find the ICAO for an airport so i typed in Malta and it came up with MLA. But i will also ask my friend who is a pilot.

when you going to add some new routes, or are BMI Baby getting there first?

Well I’m now lost as to why IATA use 3 letter codes in commercial aviation ticketing, fares and proration manuals and not their own 4 letter codes if that is the case.

But you see, IATA codes are not three letter codes there are four letter codes, so when you guys are talking about IATA codes being three letters your actually refering to it incorrectly. ICAO are the three letter codes.

In the airline industry – as far as selling tickets, calculating fares and revenue accounting are concerned – only the 3 letter codes are used. All the IATA manuals for calculating through fares use 3 letter codes only too.

Yep Im right about the codes.
IATA are four letter codes,
and
ICAO are three letter codes.
