Language Notes
Ticket can refer to many different types of transportation (Metro, bus, train, plane, etc.). In general, you can guess the means of transportation by the context.
When discussing airplane travel, a red eye is a flight that leaves at night to arrive early the next morning. This is in reference to how red your eyes become when you don’t get a full night’s sleep.
