What is the term for the portion of the flight between two cities?

• A. Leg
• B. Segment
• C. Sector
• D. Route

Answer: (A)

Understanding flight structure: a journey is built from individual hops between cities, each hop is a leg. The leg represents the specific segment from one city to the next, so a trip with connections consists of multiple legs, each with its own flight number and schedule. A route, by contrast, is the whole path from origin to final destination, potentially including several legs. A segment is sometimes used in aviation language, but the most precise term for a single hop between two cities is leg, and sector refers to a division of airspace rather than a travel segment.
