A quick definition of transit passage:

Transit Passage: The right of a ship or airplane to travel freely through a specific area of the ocean or airspace without stopping or interfering with the activities of the country that controls that area. This is only allowed for the purpose of getting from one part of the ocean or airspace to another part. It is different from innocent passage, which allows ships to stop briefly for non-commercial purposes.

A more thorough explanation:

Transit passage is a term used in international law to describe the right of a vessel or airplane to travel freely through a specific area for the purpose of continuous and efficient transit between two parts of the high seas or an exclusive economic zone.

For example, a cargo ship traveling from China to the United States would have the right to transit passage through the Strait of Malacca, a narrow waterway between Malaysia and Indonesia, in order to reach its destination. Similarly, an airplane flying from Europe to Asia would have the right to transit passage through the airspace over Russia.

These examples illustrate how transit passage allows for the free movement of goods and people between different parts of the world, without being subject to unnecessary restrictions or delays.

This is obviously not true for UVA. Past years show they don't send any non A results until December
