What is the IATA code for Paris Charles de Gaulle?

• A. LFPG
• B. LEMD
• C. LHR
• D. CDG

Answer: (D)

IATA airport codes are three-letter identifiers used on tickets, baggage tags, and itineraries to quickly identify airports. For Paris, the international hub near the city is Charles de Gaulle, and its IATA code is CDG. This code comes from the airport’s name, Charles de Gaulle, and is used globally in travel documents. It’s different from the ICAO code, which is a four-letter code used more in flight operations; for the same airport, the ICAO code is LFPG. The other codes listed correspond to different airports or different coding systems: London Heathrow uses a separate IATA code, Madrid’s airport has its own distinct codes, and LFPG is the ICAO code for Charles de Gaulle, not the IATA code. So the IATA code for Paris Charles de Gaulle is CDG.
