Group codes consist of two letters and a trailing digit and are used to designate parties traveling together. The first two letters differentiate one party from another. The trailing digit indicates the number of people in the party. Letter assignments are completely random, but unique to each flight. Note that these codes are unrelated to boarding groups used at the gate (i.e. Groups 1-6).
