An en route alternate is an aerodrome at which an aircraft would be able to land after experiencing an abnormal or emergency condition in flight. A destination alternate is an aerodrome to which an aircraft may proceed should it become either impossible or inadvisable to land at the intended aerodrome. The aerodrome from which a flight departs may also be an en route or a destination alternate aerodrome for that flight.
