Airport Codes generator

Last modified: April 3, 2025

The Airport Codes generator creates simulated airport codes that follow the standardized formats for identifying airports. These codes include IATA Codes, three-letter codes used by airlines and travelers, such as JFK (John F. Kennedy International Airport) or LAX (Los Angeles International Airport).

Generator properties

The table provides key details about the generator, including the short name, sample of the generated data, the supported data types, and whether it is specific to a particular country.

Short name	Example of generated data	Data type matching	Country-specific
Airport Codes	TEZ, LRS, DCI, …	charactercharacter varyingtext	Default

Matching rules

The generator can be assigned to a column that matches any of the following rules:

The column name is ‘code’, and it belongs to a table whose name starts with ‘Airport’ and ends with ‘codes’, with any or no characters in between.
The column name starts with ‘airport’ and ends with ‘code’, with any or no characters in between, regardless of the table name.
The column name is ‘IATA’ or ‘FAA’, regardless of the table name.

Configure additional options

The generator produces data based on a regular expression. Since it is built on the RegExp generator, see Regular Expression generator to customize settings and understand the correct usage of syntax.

The Text box displays a .csv file that contains a list of airport names and their codes. The default path to the file is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Devart\dbForge Studio for PostgreSQL\Data Generators\Airports.csv.
