the.com/deplaning

the bureaucratic word for getting off a plane, because 'leaving' wasn't corporate enough.

means the act of disembarking an aircraft, used almost exclusively in airline announcements no one asked for.

from aviation jargon born from adding 'de-' to 'plane' as a verb, first showing up in american airline PA scripts mid-20th century to sound official.
