transatlántica

Transatlántica is the Spanish term meaning transatlantic. It is used to describe anything related to the Atlantic Ocean or crossing its waters, especially connections between Europe and the Americas. In technical and commercial language, transatlántica designates routes, services, or links that span the Atlantic, as well as organizations or brands that emphasize that cross‑ocean reach.

Historically, the term appeared in the names of shipping companies and their routes, which operated ocean‑going passenger and cargo services across the Atlantic. In Spanish‑speaking contexts, slogans or corporate names such as Trasatlántica have been used to signal a transatlantic scope in maritime commerce and travel.

In modern usage, transatlántica can describe transatlantic flights, freight shipments, or communications links, including undersea cable systems and cross‑continental data connections. It is also used as a corporate or brand name for firms in logistics, transportation, and media that aim to signal cross‑border reach.
