Lcchang  +  361413 Mon, 07 May 07 10:37 AM You can take a non-stop flight at 10:00 or a direct flight at 2:00. Is there any difference between a non-stop and a direct flight? Please advise.

Non-stop - the plane doesn't stop anywhere until it gets to its destination. nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,713 The name says it all.
