In an effort to help the newbs, I want to put together a glossary of commonly used words that aren't common knowledge:


CI: Company Image
L/F or LF:  Load Factor
PAX: Passengers
RI: Route Image

SAMI:  You lord and master


Please post those that you can come up with

Config. = Seating Configuration
MTOW = Maximum Take-Off Weight
PAP = Passenger (Singular)
Red-eye = Over night flight

Would a few generic forum terms too like AFAIK and IMHO be ok to add as well, as unknown ones do pop up?

EDIT:  Well, unknown to me anyway  :laugh:
