international flight

Passport-required air travel

An international flight is a journey by aircraft that crosses from one country into another.

The term distinguishes such travel from domestic flights, which remain within a single nation's borders.

International flights typically involve customs, immigration procedures, and passport requirements: Our international flight to Tokyo departs at noon.
