DIRECTFLIGHT

Direct flight

A direct flight in the aviation industry is any flight between two points by an airline with no change in flight numbers, which may include a stop over at an intermediate point. The stop over may either be to get new passengers or a mere technical stop over . These are often confused with non-stop flights, which are flights involving no intermediate stops. When there is a change in flight number, the subsequent flight is referred to as a connecting flight.
