Pick arriving, connecting, or leaving. Typical windows stay hypothetical until you add flight times.

Most connections stay airside. Longer usable hours can open a short city edge. Still not a layover score.

Typical windows

Hypothetical duration bands only, like a stopover length guide, without inventing packages or free stays.

  • About 2 hours

    Often an airside reset: walk, meal, gate buffer. The stop stays inside the airport, not a city destination yet.

  • About 4 hours usable

    Sometimes a short city edge when exit rights and transit clear. Score your flight times before treating the stop as a destination.

  • About 6 hours or more

    Often enough for a city bite when the clock and permission allow. That is when the stop can read as a second destination. Still not a layover score.

No Easy, Comfortable, Quick, or Airport stop label without your arrival and departure clocks.
