Direct Flight
A flight that travels from the departure airport to the destination without any layovers.
Layover

A temporary stopover at an intermediate airport between connecting flights. Layovers can vary in duration, providing passengers with time to change planes or explore the layover city.

Leg of the trip

In the context of a journey with connecting flights, a leg of the trip still refers to an individual portion of the passenger’s travel between two consecutive airports without any layovers. For example, if a passenger travels from City A to City B and then from City B to City C without any layovers, each of these flights is considered a separate leg of the trip. The term “leg” remains applicable even when there are connecting flights involved. A “leg” of the trip refers to the direct travel between two consecutive airports, whether it’s a non-stop flight or part of a journey with connecting flights.
