In my Japanese text book it says the following:

```

    Rondon kara jyuuichi jikan no hikouki de no idou desu /
    it's 11 hours flight from London
    
    hikouki de no idou = flight
    
```

I understand `hikouki` means `flight` and `idou` means `change`. But I don't
follow what `hikouki de no idou` means. Could someone explain? Thanks!

question
grammar meaning words
What does "de no idou" mean (in relation to flights)?
I believe you're thinking of the wrong `idou`. This 異動 means "change(s)". This
移動 means "movement/transfer", or can be used for "travel". Also, `hikouki`
means "airplane". I've never heard it used to mean "a flight"; that is usually
[便]{びん}.

So it means `An 11-hour airplane travel/trip from London`.
