commercial flights

Commercial flights are scheduled air travel operated by airlines for paying passengers, as distinct from private, military, or charter aviation.
The term encompasses everything from regional routes to international journeys: Commercial flights to Europe were suspended during the volcanic eruption.
Most people's experience of flying is on commercial flights—the realm of boarding passes, assigned seats, and in-flight beverage service.
