棕榈滩国际机场已于周四正式更名为唐纳德·J·特朗普总统国际机场,但尽管标识会更换,官方机场代码仍将在一个月内保持不变。

佛罗里达州州长罗恩·德桑蒂斯于3月签署法案,正式为纪念特朗普总统更改机场名称,美国联邦航空管理局(FAA)发布指引称,机场名称将于7月9日正式变更。

不过,乘客日常最常使用的三字机场代码目前为PBI,要更改为DJT则要等到8月18日。

这意味着在40天的过渡期内,用于飞行员、空中交通管制和航空运营的FAA位置标识符及国际民航组织代码将使用DJT,而乘客用于购票和查询航班信息的代码仍为PBI。

大气研究集团航空业分析师亨利·哈特维尔特表示,各航空公司已在其预订、乘客服务及其他系统中实施了“硬编码”,以确保乘客和行李能够被准确送达至正确机场。

“航空公司告诉我,至少在最初阶段,在其网站上使用PBI代码搜索航班的用户,将被引导至现已更名为DJT机场的航班,”哈特维尔特说道,“我还了解到,空乘人员将被允许使用‘欢迎来到西棕榈滩’作为问候语,而非‘欢迎来到唐纳德·J·特朗普国际机场’。”

国际航空运输协会(IATA)极少批准更改机场位置代码。根据IATA官网信息,这些代码通常被视为永久标识,“几乎从不更改——除非有极强的理由,主要涉及航空安全问题”。

更改三字位置代码的正式申请来自服务棕榈滩国际机场的美国主要航空公司,包括达美航空、联合航空、美国航空、捷蓝航空和西南航空。

“IATA已应服务棕榈滩国际机场的航空公司请求,同意将机场IATA三字代码从PBI更改为DJT,同时将机场名称更改为唐纳德·J·特朗普总统国际机场,”一名IATA发言人说道。

据该发言人透露,IATA已通知行业利益相关方,代码变更将于8月18日生效,以确保所有系统能在此期限内完成更新。

机场官网鼓励乘客在8月正式变更生效前继续使用PBI代码。

“我们意识到,此次强制更名可能会让乘客产生不同看法,感谢大家在过渡期内的持续支持,”机场常见问题解答页面写道,“我们将继续致力于为所有乘客提供服务,确保出行体验愉快。”

据机场数据显示,该机场每年接待近800万名乘客。总统经常使用该机场往返其位于佛罗里达州的海湖庄园度假胜地。

今年5月,棕榈滩县委员会批准了一项冠名许可协议,允许在机场名称中加入“唐纳德·J·特朗普”。此前特朗普集团已为在任何机场使用总统姓名申请了商标。

根据协议,特朗普不得从机场商品销售中获取特许权使用费、费用或收入,但机场可以使用特朗普的姓名、肖像和 likeness 来宣传机场。

全美共有12座以总统命名的机场。

Florida’s West Palm Beach airport is now named after Trump, but flyers will still see the PBI airport code – for now

Palm Beach International Airport became President Donald J. Trump International Airport on Thursday, but while the signage may change, the official airport code will not for another month.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a law in March to officially change the airport name in honor of President Trump, and the Federal Aviation Administration issued guidance that the name will change on July 9.

However, the three letter airport code that passengers most often see — which is currently PBI — will not change to DJT until Aug. 18.

That means that for 40 days, the FAA locational identifier and the International Civil Aviation Organization will be using a different airport code for pilots, air traffic controllers and aviation operations, DJT, than passengers will be using for ticketing and flight information, PBI.

Henry Harteveldt, airline industry analyst at Atmosphere Research Group, says airlines have implemented “hard coding” into their reservations, passenger service, and other systems to ensure passengers and bags will be delivered to the correct airport.

“Airlines have told me that, at least initially, people who use the PBI code on their websites to search for flights will be directed to flights from what will now be called DJT,” Harteveldt said. “I’ve also been told that flight attendants will be given leeway to say ‘welcome to West Palm Beach,’ rather than ‘welcome to Donald J. Trump International Airport.’”

It’s very rare for the International Air Transport Association to approve changes to airport location codes. These codes are typically considered permanent and “are almost never changed –and then only with strong justification, primarily concerning air safety,” according to the IATA site.

The official request to change the three letter location code came from the major U.S. airlines serving the Palm Beach International Airport, including Delta, United, American Airlines, JetBlue and Southwest.

“IATA has acted on a request from airlines serving Palm Beach International Airport to change the airport’s IATA 3-letter code from PBI to DJT, along with the change of the location name to President Donald J. Trump International Airport,” an IATA spokesperson said.

IATA notified industry stakeholders that the change will take effect on Aug. 18 to ensure that all systems can be updated within that timeframe, according to a spokesperson.

The airport’s website is encouraging passengers to continue using the code PBI until the official change happens in August.

“While we recognize that the required name change may be received in different ways by our passengers, we’re grateful for your continued support through this transition period,” according to the airport’s frequently asked questions page. “We remain committed to serving all passengers and ensuring a positive travel experience.”

Nearly eight million passengers fly through PBI annually, according to the airport. The president flies into PBI on a frequent basis in order to travel to his Florida resort Mar-a-Lago.

In May, the Palm Beach County commissioners approved a licensing deal to add “Donald J. Trump” to its airport name after the Trump Organization filed for a trademark for the use of the president’s name at any airport.

Under the agreement, Mr. Trump is prohibited from receiving royalties, fees, or revenue from purchases of merchandise at the airport, but the airport can use Mr. Trump’s name, image, and likeness to advertise for the airport.

There are 12 airports across the country named after presidents.
