nonstop flight
Straight to destination
A nonstop flight travels from origin to destination without landing in between.
The term distinguishes from direct flights, which may stop but don't require changing planes: It's a nonstop flight from New York to London—about seven hours.
Nonstop emphasizes the convenience of no intermediate stops.
