gate numbers

Airport boarding locations

Gate numbers identify specific boarding locations at airports, train stations, and bus terminals.

Passengers check their gate number on tickets or departure boards to find where to board: Our flight leaves from gate 23.

Gate numbers may change, prompting announcements directing travelers to new locations.

The term extends to any numbered access point in a large facility.
