disembarkers
Those going ashore
Disembarkers are people in the process of leaving a vessel, aircraft, or vehicle.
The word appears most often in transportation contexts—passengers disembarking from cruise ships, planes, or trains: Disembarkers streamed through the terminal toward customs.
The term is functional rather than common, typically used when distinguishing those getting off from those getting on.
