    In order to facilitate the adjustment of

    fares, IATA has divided the world into


    three main ‘Areas’ . These Areas are
    called Area 1, Area 2 and Area 3 . They
    are regularly used in the interpretation
    of tariff rules and in the calculation of
    international air fares.
    Under each Area there are smaller ‘sub-areas’ or ‘regions’ which, in
    the IATA context, may have a different meaning from that generally
    implied by the geographical term.

    For example, IATA Europe in Area 2 comprises not only geographical


    Europe but also the following countries and islands
     Three North African countries, i.e. Morocco, Algeria
    and Tunisia
     The Azores, Madeira and canary Islands

     The part of turkey situated on the Asian continent


    In general, Area 1is composed of the whole of
    the Western Hemisphere. However, Area 1
    composition may vary depending on the rule
    being interpreted.

    For example, when interpreting the rule on


    carrier fare selection the following subareas
    make up TC 1 :
     NORTH AMERICA

    countries shall also be considered as part of South America:
    Argentina (AR) Ecuador (EC) Peru (PE)
