When they say when you book a flight somewhere and it has muliple stops, what does that mean exactly?


Travel Info
I want to book a flight from Raleigh to Roanoke and it says that it has 2 stops. Does that mean that I would get off the plane and get on another like you would a bus or would I just stop and let other passengers onboard?

Travel Tips
You could be allowed to stay on the plane or be required to de-plane and re-board either the same plane or another plane. If you have to de-plane and re-board, you run the risk of missing your connection or your luggage. This risk depends partly on the length of your stop or layover.

If your itinerary says you change airlines, you can bet that you'll have to de-plane and re-board. If not, you will probably have to check the flight numbers and/or call the airline or travel agent.

means it has layovers, you get off the plane onto anouther one as they transfer your luggage
yeah. you get on another plane
Yes- the plane will stop twice to let people on and off - you do not have to change planes.
That more than likely means you will be changing planes. Which is pretty bad when those 2 cities are not that far away from each other. But, that is what you have to do to get the cheaper fares.
Another plane. That's a pain- you risk mising the plane-- or some of your luggage. Pay a little extra for direct or only one stop!
If the flight # doesn't change between your stops, then the plane will land, passengers get off the plane for that stop, and other passengers will come on board. If you are on a flight with open seating, they will let you move around. If the flight # changes, then you will get off the plane and get on another plane at another gate.

Since your flight has two stops, as long as your flight # doesn't change, you should have one stop to let other passengers on/off and then the second stop should be your final desitination to Roanoke.
