ETD

ETD, or Estimated Time of Departure, is the predicted time when a vehicle, such as a truck or airplane, is expected to leave its current location or destination. It helps coordinate schedules by providing an estimate based on current conditions and planned operations. While it’s not always exact, ETD allows planners, customers, and logistics teams to anticipate when goods or passengers will depart, facilitating better planning and time management. Overall, it’s a useful forecast that guides operational timing without guaranteeing an exact departure moment.
