Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking airports people often use the formal possessive ‘su’ when speaking to strangers or airline staff, e.g., “¿Su vuelo sale de aquí?”. The informal ‘tu’ is perfect with friends or family. Also, the verb ‘salir’ is the standard term for scheduled departures, while ‘despegar’ is more specific to the moment the aircraft leaves the ground.
