departure time
When you go
Departure time is the scheduled or actual moment when a vehicle—plane, train, bus, or ship—leaves its origin point.
Airlines and transit systems distinguish between scheduled departure time and actual departure time: The departure time was delayed by two hours.
In casual use, it's simply when you plan to leave: What's our departure time tomorrow?
