What is the difference between long and short layovers?

Generally, longer layovers may involve a change of aircraft or even a change of airport, while shorter layovers may simply be a brief stop at an airport for some passengers to disembark and others to board. Below is an explanation of each type of stop:

Stop

In this type of stop, the passenger does not deplane. This stop usually occurs for refueling or for other passengers to disembark or board. Note in the example below that there is a gap between the arrival time of the first segment and the departure time of the second segment, and the airline and aircraft remain the same.

Connection (layover)

In this stop, the passenger must change planes and the layover is longer; in some cases, an airport change may be required.

With airport change

Note in the example below that there is a gap between the arrival time of the first segment and the departure time of the second, and the departure airport of the second segment is different from the arrival airport of the first segment. In this case, the transfer between airports is the passenger's responsibility.

Stopover (not available in this API):

This is a long layover that can last up to 5 days, depending on the connection. Due to the long wait, some airlines allow passengers to leave the airport and enjoy time in the city where the stopover takes place, turning it into a benefit for the passenger.
