What is "layovers"

Usage examples of "layovers".

Clubb plucked an unclean glass from the morass and filled it with Dutch gin or genever from one of the minaret-shaped stone flagons I had observed upon my infrequent layovers in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

It adds a few hours to the schedule and shortens the layovers in the next few ports to catch up.

They're technically uninhabited, but some of them are used as layovers by drug runners and some have the 'pirates' on them.
