Time Running Out to Secure IATA 3-Letter Airport Codes in .aero Domain Name
Wednesday, March 26, 2008

NamesBeyond's Exclusive Registration period ends November 30, 2008

PHILADELPHIA, March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- NamesBeyond, the official registrar for .aero and a leader in sponsored and country code top level domain names, today announced that all IATA 3-letter airport codes are now available for registration in the .aero domain name for qualified parties.

"The clock is winding down for airports to secure their 3-letter codes in the .aero domain name," said Uma Murali, President & CEO, NamesBeyond. "Airports have until November 30 to register their IATA location identifiers at NamesBeyond, after which we will release these unique airport codes to the general public."

In June 2007, the council of aviation associations (Dot Aero Council) decided to allow open registrations of the IATA 3-letter airport codes. These airport codes are globally recognizable, and several high profile airports including Portland International Airport, Memphis International Airport, Montreal-Trudeau, and Mumbai have already secured their codes (PDX, MEM, YUL, BOM) exclusively with NamesBeyond.

"NamesBeyond is the fastest growing .aero registrar in the world," said Pierre-Yves Benain, .aero Manager at SITA, the registry sponsor for .aero. "The three letter codes uniquely represent airports, and are so globally recognizable they become part of an airport's brand. We are pleased that NamesBeyond offers this unprecedented opportunity to secure the online presence of each airport's code."

"It is much easier for pilots, controllers, travel agents, frequent flyers and baggage handlers to say and write PIT than the Pittsburgh International Airport in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania," said Uma Murali. "Airports can quickly get these names from NamesBeyond, but only if they act soon."
