These three sets of codes are used by myriad computer systems to process passenger and cargo traffic information smoothly and efficiently from beginning to end of each flight.

The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) designates publicly owned airports having more than twenty five hundred (2500) passenger boardings per year as Commercial Service Airports. Of these airports, those having more than ten thousand (10000) passenger boardings per year are Primary Commercial Service Airports or simply Primary Airports while those having at least twenty five hundred (2500) and no more than ten thousand (10000) passenger boardings each year are Nonprimary Commercial Service Airports.
