What the codes mean

The two-character IATA code is the one on tickets, boarding passes and flight numbers (AF 123). The three-letter ICAO code is used in flight plans and by air traffic control. The radio callsign is what pilots and controllers say on the radio: a flight filed as AFR123 is called “AIRFRANS one two three”.
