transport
We usually use the word transport when talking about vehicular transportation. However, the actual definition encompasses any transportation of people or goods by any means. Whether it be by train, automobile, road, rail, sea, coaches or airplanes, the transport of anything these days is big business.
Much of the world’s economy and business relies on transport to a great extent. The transportation of humans through the air as just one example. Flying is a huge business and there are many companies world wide offering ever “cheaper” flights to almost any destination in order to try and take customers from the other companies.
