Example prompt: What airline or airport is identified by the IATA code 'LHR' — can you look that up and tell me the full name and location?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to resolve or decode a 2-letter airline IATA code or a 3-letter airport IATA code into its full human-readable name and associated metadata. Ideal for enriching flight data, displaying readable labels, or validating that a code corresponds to a real airline or airport.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unknown IATA code returns empty or error response
- Malformed code path causes 400 or 404 error
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns 5xx error
- Code is valid but refers to a defunct or decommissioned airline/airport
