Expanded Code Support for Airlines

We are pleased to announce an update to our airline code support system, enhancing compatibility and flexibility in identifying airlines.

New Code Support

In addition to the previously supported 2-letter IATA codes, the system now supports the following formats:

  1. 3-digit IATA codes.
