English term or phrase: trunk carriers
We are translating an accounting text involving an airline from English to Spanish. The sentence involved talks about depreciation of trunk carriers. Not knowing the business, we're not sure if "trunk" here is in the sense of "enlace" or has to do with "contenedores" de algún tipo.
