U+1F6EB "🛫" Airplane Departure Unicode Character

Unicode Version 17.0

🛫

U+1F6EB "🛫" Airplane Departure is a pictographic symbol that depicts an aircraft taking off, typically shown as a jet or airplane angled upward with motion lines or a clear upward trajectory. It was added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of the Transport and Map Symbols block, where it serves as a visual representation for departing flights in digital contexts. This character is widely used in travel applications, airport signage, flight tracking services, and messaging platforms to indicate the start of a journey or the specific status of an airplane that has left the ground. Its design may vary slightly across different fonts and operating systems, but the core meaning of departure and upward movement remains consistent across all platforms.
