A metro group brings together multiple airports that serve the same city or metropolitan area under a single searchable code. This makes it easy to find all flights into or out of a city regardless of which specific airport they use.
An Example: New York City
New York City is served by three major airports, all grouped under the metro code NYC:
- JFK — John F. Kennedy International Airport
- EWR — Newark Liberty International Airport
- LGA — LaGuardia Airport
Searching by the NYC metro group will return results across all three airports, which is useful when you are open to flying into or out of any of them — for example, arriving at JFK and departing from EWR based on schedules, fares or your plans during the trip.
