Default Cunning escalator plan?

I think "EXIT" is much clearer and shorter. Plus it doesn't have
surfer dude connotations. YMMV.

Seems clearer to me than "deplaning" and "landing momentarily" (*for* a
moment rather than *in* a moment, in UK English).


In the airlines' dreams, the plane *will* only be landing momentarily.
The most efficient airlines have turnarounds of 30 min or less.
