IATA vs. ICAO codes
Every airport has two standard codes, and both are listed in the table above. The IATA code is the three-letter identifier used commercially — on boarding passes, baggage tags, ticket searches, and most everyday airport conversations (ATL, JFK, YYZ, MEX). It's assigned by the International Air Transport Association and exists primarily for commercial-passenger airports. The ICAO code is the four-letter identifier used operationally — in flight plans, air traffic control, METARs, NOTAMs, and the cockpit (KATL, KJFK, CYYZ, MMMX). It's assigned by the International Civil Aviation Organization, with leading characters that encode the country or region (K for the contiguous United States, P for Alaska / Hawaii / US Pacific territories, T for Puerto Rico and parts of the Caribbean, C for Canada, M for Mexico). Both codes uniquely identify an airport, but the audiences and use cases differ — the IATA code is what a passenger sees, the ICAO code is what an aviator uses.
About this list
Inclusion criterion. US: every FAA-classified Large hub and Medium hub from the most recent FAA passenger-boarding tables. Canada: the Transport Canada National Airports System, plus a small number of high-traffic non-NAS commercial airports (Hamilton, Kelowna, Abbotsford). Mexico: every airport operated by the three publicly-listed concessionaire groups (GAP, ASUR, OMA), plus the federally-operated Mexico City (AICM) and Felipe Ángeles (AIFA) airports. Excluded by criterion: small hubs and non-hubs in the US, ASA-operated regional Mexican airports, military-only airfields, and any airport outside the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Data freshness. Reference data (codes, coordinates, elevation, runways, owner, opening date) is curated from each airport's official authority page. Latest passenger figures are CY 2023 totals (enplanements + deplanements) where confidently sourced and re-verified on a recurring monthly cadence aligned to the FAA's NASR 28-day cycle. Per-airport live operational data (METAR, TAF, NOTAMs, FAA delay programs) is fetched directly from NOAA's Aviation Weather Center and the FAA NOTAM Search each time a per-airport page loads.
What is intentionally excluded. Real-time flight schedules and fares (paid APIs only). Per-flight on-time performance — that's a separate page that's planned but not yet shipped. Booking widgets, hotel and parking links, ground-transportation directories, ratings or "best airport" rankings.
