Emplane

Emplane is a verb that means to board an aircraft. It is commonly used in the context of air travel and signifies the action of passengers entering the plane to begin their journey. This process typically involves presenting boarding passes at the gate and then walking down a jet bridge or being transported by bus to the aircraft, where passengers then proceed to their assigned seats. The term is often used interchangeably with "board the plane" or "get on the plane." Airlines and airport staff frequently use "emplane" in official communications and announcements related to the boarding procedures for flights. The opposite action, disembarking from an aircraft, is often referred to as "deplane."
