History
When Blue1 stopped flying, CityJet took its place.
What the codes mean
The two-character IATA code is the one on tickets, boarding passes and flight numbers (KF 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 BLF123 is called “BLUEFINN one two three”.
