Disembark

In the financial world this is used to describe the termination of an ongoing relationsip with a customer. This replaces “exiting the relationship,” as it simply sounds more pleasant, or as George Carlin might have playfully contrasted the terms, you ‘disembark’ a cruise ship but ‘exit’ a fire drill.

Mister Stockton’s account remained in overdraft so we disembarked.

disembarkation

Something an Air Host/Hostess will say when leaving a plane to sound intelligent.

“I'm sorry passengers, you will need to wait before your disembarkation due to another plane on the tarmac”
