DEPLANE describes which action?

• A. Term used to denote customers boarding the aircraft.
• B. The movement of an aircraft from high to low altitude.
• C. The showing of passengers emergency equipment usage only.
• D. Term used to denote customers leaving or exiting the aircraft.

Answer: (D)

DEPLANING is the term for passengers exiting the aircraft after a flight. It describes the act of disembarking, usually through the doors once the plane has landed and arrived at the gate. It’s the opposite of boarding, which is people entering the aircraft before departure. This term isn’t about moving the airplane to a different altitude or about demonstrating emergency equipment.
