Wikipedia
Direct flight
A direct flight in the aviation industry is any flight between two points by an airline with no change in flight numbers, which may include one or more stops at an intermediate point(s). A stop may either be to get new passengers (or allow some to disembark) or a technical stop over (i.e., for refuelling). Direct flights are often confused with non-stop flights, which are a special case of direct flights involving no intermediate stops. When there is a change in flight number, the subsequent flight is referred to as a connecting flight.

A direct flight is a flight itinerary where the passenger stays on the same aircraft for the entire travel but the flight may make one or more intermediate stops, either to refuel or to pick up or drop off passengers. This is different from a non-stop flight, which makes no stops between departure and destination.
