What is another word for connecting flight?
Pronunciation: [kənˈɛktɪŋ flˈa͡ɪt] (IPA) 
Connecting flight refers to a flight that needs to be taken to reach the final destination and requires passengers to change planes at a transit point. This is a common term used in the airline industry. However, there are several synonyms for connecting flights such as stopover, layover, transit flight, connecting leg, through-flight, and intermediate flight. Stopover is a term used when passengers stay at the transit point for more than 24 hours. Layover is a similar term to stopover, but typically refers to a shorter stay between flights. Transit flight refers to a flight where passengers remain on the same plane but make stops to pick up or drop off passengers, whereas through-flight refers to a flight that continues beyond the transit point.
