เที่ยวบินขาออก

Explanation

The expression combines เที่ยวบิน “flight” with ขาออก “the outward or departing direction.” From an airport’s perspective, it means a departing flight and contrasts with เที่ยวบินขาเข้า, an arriving flight. In a round-trip itinerary, it can also refer to the outbound flight. When the context is clear, speakers may shorten it to ขาออก to mean the outward leg.

Usage

It commonly appears on airport departure boards, airline status pages, and booking screens. It is also used when distinguishing the outbound flight from the return flight in a round-trip itinerary.

Caution

It does not necessarily mean an international flight; a domestic flight can also be เที่ยวบินขาออก if it is departing from the airport in question. Use เที่ยวบินขากลับ when you specifically mean the return flight.
