A layover flight, also known simply as a layover, refers to a stopover at an intermediate airport between the origin and final destination of a journey. During a layover, passengers may remain on the same aircraft or switch to a connecting flight to reach their ultimate destination. Layovers can vary in duration, ranging from just a few minutes to several hours or even overnight stays, depending on the airline’s scheduling and the specific itinerary. Passengers often use layovers as an opportunity to stretch their legs, grab a meal, or explore the airport before continuing their journey.
