Term: Voyage
Definition: A voyage is when a ship travels from one place to another. This can include going to different ports to buy and sell things, or just transporting cargo from one place to another. The whole journey is considered a voyage, not just the route. If the ship goes to a foreign country, it's called a foreign voyage. If it's just transporting cargo between two points, it's called a freighting voyage.
Definition: A voyage refers to the journey of a vessel by sea from one place, port, or country to another. This term includes the entire enterprise, not just the route.
There are different types of voyages:
For example, a cargo ship traveling from China to the United States is considered a foreign voyage. A tanker transporting oil from the Middle East to Europe is also a foreign voyage. A freighter carrying goods from one port to another within the same country is not a foreign voyage.
A trading voyage could be a cruise ship that stops at different ports to allow passengers to explore and shop. Or it could be a cargo ship that buys and sells goods at various ports along its route.
