Passagier
In short
A person who travels in a vehicle, such as a bus, train, or plane, but is not the driver or operator.
In plain words
When you buy a ticket to go somewhere on public transport, you are a passenger. You sit in a seat while someone else steers the vehicle.
A simple example
If you board a flight from London to Athens, you are a passenger on that aircraft. The pilot is the person in charge of flying it.
Why it matters
Understanding passenger rights is important for safety and legal protection. It helps people know what services and compensation they are entitled to during a journey.
Easy to mix up
Do not confuse a passenger with a driver, who is the person actually controlling the vehicle.
