Notes d'usage	On utilise 'départ' surtout quand on parle de voyages ou de quelqu'un qui s'en va. C'est assez neutre, donc ça va dans la plupart des situations, mais pour parler entre potes, on dirait plutôt 'se barrer' ou 'se tirer'. Use 'departure' in contexts about travel or leaving. It’s neutral and suitable for formal and casual situations but may not be the best choice for very informal conversations.	Couramment utilisé pour désigner les voyages aériens.

À éviter lorsqu'il s'agit de mouvements non liés à l'aviation. Used commonly to refer to air travel. Suitable for both casual conversations and formal contexts, such as travel planning and safety discussions. Avoid when discussing non-aviation related movements.
