Which city is represented by the code SAN?

  1. San Jose

  2. San Diego

  3. Santa Barbara

  4. Santa Rosa

The correct answer is: San Jose

The correct city represented by the code SAN is San Diego. Airport codes are often derived from the name of the city or airport, and in this case, SAN is specifically the IATA airport code for San Diego International Airport. San Jose is represented by the code SJC, Santa Barbara by SBA, and Santa Rosa by STS. Each city has its own unique airport code, which helps avoid confusion when booking flights and navigating airports. Thus, the code SAN unmistakably identifies San Diego.
