noun
- (travel) A nonstop journey, especially a nonstop flight."With business-class seats on nonstops from British Airways and Cathay Pacific often priced up to $8,000 round trip, Mr. Exton typically flew cheaper alternatives that saved money but required layovers and plane switches."
- (linguistics) A linguistic sound that is not a stop; a continuant."Some of these consonants are stops, some are non-stops (continuants, see 11.2); some are voiced, others voiceless. It doesn't therefore look as if these consonants can have anything in common."
