AIRPORT(7)

✈️ airport(7) — NAME 🛫

okay so bestie, welcome to airport(7) from the Miscellaneous Information Manual ✨. This page is literally about airport — a list of IATA airport codes. Simple, iconic, we love.

🛫 DESCRIPTION 🛫

The airport file is a list of airports that have an IATA airport code. The list is sorted alphabetically by airport code, so it’s giving organized queen energy 💅.

Important vibe check: this is not a complete list of all IATA codes. Not even close, bestie. New airports can only be added by OpenBSD developers who have visited an airport and thereby have verified its existence. Like, you gotta actually go there and confirm it’s real? That’s the rule, no cap 🫶.

📁 FILES 📁

• /usr/share/misc/airport — this is the file, bestie. The whole airport-code list lives here 🎀.

👀 SEE ALSO 👀

• Airline and Airport Code Search: https://www.iata.org/codes — the link for airline and airport code search, iykyk 🌈.

💀 CAVEATS 💀

Plot twist, bestie: there are also railway stations with IATA codes. These may not be listed, except if someone landed there by plane and survived to update the file. Yes, literally survived 😭. So if you’re looking for a railway station with an IATA code, do not assume it’s in here — it might be, but only under that extremely specific plane-landing-survival scenario 🙈.
