Data methodology

Airport identifiers are cross-checked against OurAirports, a community-maintained public-domain source, not an operational aeronautical publication. Coordinates come from that dataset; airport names can differ in spelling or branding. Time-zone identifiers are checked against PHP’s IANA list. That validates the identifier, not a future civil-time rule.

Scope and provenance

Airport identifiers are cross-checked against OurAirports, a community-maintained public-domain source, not an operational aeronautical publication.

Aircraft comparison limits

Seats refer to the cabin basis displayed next to each model. Maximum seats are shown only where the reviewed source provides them. Manufacturer range depends on assumptions; ATR uses maximum passengers and brochure reserve conditions. A350 headline figures differ from technical tables: this reference uses the tables. Published capability does not establish certification status or availability on an airline route.

Revisions and reuse

This edition was reviewed on 2 October 2026. Each airport and aircraft links to its source. CSV and JSON exports contain the same curated records; glossary definitions follow the selected language. IATA/ICAO codes, model names and IANA identifiers retain their standard spelling. Cite the source and review date when reusing a value.
