transatlantic routes
Paths across seas
Transatlantic routes are paths of travel or transport crossing the Atlantic Ocean, typically connecting North America with Europe or Africa.
The term most often refers to commercial airline flights between these continents, though it historically applied to steamship passages and still describes shipping lanes.
The airline added three new transatlantic routes this summer.
In aviation contexts, these routes are among the most profitable and competitive in the industry.
