Locations file
GET /locations — market not required (this is global data; the market parameter has no effect).
A JSON array mapping port/location codes to a country, a display name, and a location type. Use it to resolve the DeparturePort and ArrivalPort codes in the voyages file. This is static reference data that changes rarely.

Fields
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
code |
string | Location code; the join key to voyages[].DeparturePort / voyages[].ArrivalPort. Port and city codes are mostly UN/LOCODE-style 5-character codes, with some legacy 3-character codes (^[A-Z0-9]{3,5}$). E.g. USOME, SJLYR, ZZATS, PUQ. hotel and transfer entries instead use longer hyphenated codes. E.g. BUE-ART, BUEAIR-HOT, CPHAIR-HOT-LUG. |
country |
string | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (^[A-Z]{2}$). ZZ is a placeholder for non-country entries — the "At Sea" entry (type sea) and all transfer services. E.g. IS, SJ, EC, AQ, ZZ. |
description |
string | Human-readable port/location name. E.g. Heimaey, Longyearbyen, At Sea. |
type |
string (enum) | Kind of location. See location types. E.g. port, city, airport. |
Location types
type is one of:
| Type | Meaning |
|---|---|
port |
A ship stop — anywhere the ship calls during the voyage. Covers both regular ports and expedition shore landings (e.g. an Antarctic landing). |
city |
A city (e.g. a transfer or overnight-stay city). |
airport |
An airport used for pre-/post-cruise flights. |
hotel |
A hotel used for pre-/post-cruise overnight stays. |
transfer |
A transfer service, not a physical place — e.g. an airport-to-hotel transfer, a luggage transfer, or a connecting flight. Always has country ZZ. E.g. Transfer from airport to hotel in Anchorage, Luggage transfer from hotel to pier in Longyearbyen. |
sea |
The non-place "At Sea" entry (ZZATS). |
Warning
Some entries are deactivation markers, not real port names. Their description may be DO NOT USE IT, TO DELETE, or a name suffixed with - old code. Filter these out before showing the list to end users — but keep them in your lookup so you can still resolve historical codes that may appear in older data.
Note
Only DeparturePort / ArrivalPort in the voyages file are port codes. The itinerary[].location field is free-text day copy and does not join here.
