A stop between flights on a multi-leg journey, where the passenger changes planes at an intermediate airport. Layovers under about 4 hours (domestic) or 6-8 hours (international) generally do not allow enough time to leave the airport comfortably; longer layovers are sometimes called “stopovers” and can be used to explore the city.
