layover time
Between-flights interval
Layover time is the interval spent waiting between connections during travel, especially at airports between flights.
The term also appears in trucking and other transportation industries for mandated rest periods: We had three hours of layover time in Dallas.
In scheduling contexts, it can refer to any built-in waiting period between sequential activities.
