Airport Code Quiz

How well do you know the three letters on your bag tag? 10 codes, three ways to play.

How to play Airport Code Quiz

Every round shows a three-letter IATA airport code, the one printed on boarding passes and bag tags. Name the city it serves: pick it among four, type it (suggestions help with the spelling, and a nearby city counts, like New York for Newark), or tap the spot on a globe without names, where the closer you land, the more points you score.

Easy uses the 150 busiest airports in the world, Medium adds every large airport, and Hard takes any airport with a code, from Alaska bush strips to Pacific islands. The daily challenge gives everyone the same 10 codes for each level and way to answer; free play deals new ones as often as you like.

Tips

  • Codes often come from an old name: ORD is Chicago O'Hare (once Orchard Field), MCO is Orlando (McCoy Air Force Base).
  • Canadian codes usually start with Y (YYZ Toronto, YVR Vancouver).
  • On the globe, aim for the right country first: a guess within 25 km scores 100 points.
