From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Gate in aviation is a section at an airport terminal for transferring passengers and airline crews to an aircraft. Passengers embark or disembark an aircraft through one of these methods:

- Airstairs, either built into the aircraft or from a mobile vehicle
- Mobile lounges
- Leaving the aircraft via mobile steps and walking across the tarmac into or from the terminal building
The equipment is either airport or airline property, in most cases airport infrastructure.
