Travel Tips - Airport Codes
It's nice to see things well organized and followed. Ever wondered what the three character codes you see on the monitor screen of the airport e-ticket information, airline website or travel agency? Here's a travel tip.
The 3-character code called the IATA - Location ID or airport code. These codes are the best identifiers to help you determine if the airport he is leaving. This is very useful if more than one airport in your area. If you just go by the name of the airport of the city may have a tendency to be lost or confused with either. It is best to tell a travel agent that the airport code to stop, it saves half the time when booking or exchange of a flight.
A classic scenario would be when a client checks the confirmation schedule and goes to the airport after the name of the area like Washington DC, as stated in the itinerary without even knowing it was going to Washington Reagan (DCA) instead of Washington Dulles (IAD).
To avoid situations like these, all my travels time the tip would be to call the airline and confirm your reservation at least 24 hours before date of travel. All travel itineraries printed code airport.
Here is a list of codes for major airports in the U.S.:

Chicago (ORD) - O'Hare International Airport
Chicago (MDW) - Midway
Dallas (DFW) - Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport
