Transport & aviation acronyms
Transport and aviation acronyms and abbreviations describe journeys, arrival estimates, vehicles and operational terms. They are used in flight information, delivery updates and communications about travel.
Start with ETA, estimated time of arrival. Its guide helps distinguish clock times from time remaining and adds the destination and time zone to an arrival update. Examples show how to make an estimate clear without presenting it as a guarantee.
