Airlines / Iran
Iran Air is an airline from Iran. Its codes are IR (IATA) and IRA (ICAO), and its radio callsign is “IRANAIR”.
What the codes mean
The two-character IATA code is the one on tickets, boarding passes and flight numbers (IR 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 IRA123 is called “IRANAIR one two three”.
