finger?
I know this is a bit of a strange question, but what is the correct term in English for the walkway between boarding gate and aircraft. Is it a finger? Mobile loading bridge? Walkway?
Many thanks!
After some checking, I think "airbrdige" is the most suitable term

Back in my day, the 'finger' was the bit that stuck out from the terminal housing the gates. For example, LGW as rebuilt in the '60s had 3 fingers (or piers). I've always heard the tunnel thingy referred to as the jetway, or less often the airbridge.
