Manifest

A manifest is a document that lists and describes the cargo, passengers, and crew members of a transportation vehicle, such as a plane, ship, or train. It typically includes information such as the names and identities of the passengers and crew, the origin and destination of the shipment, the quantity and description of the cargo, and other details related to the transportation of the goods or people.

In the case of air travel, the passenger manifest is a document that contains a list of all the passengers and crew members who are on board a particular flight. The manifest is usually generated by the airline or the transportation authority responsible for the flight, and it is used for various purposes such as safety, security, and accounting.

The cargo manifest, on the other hand, lists the description and quantity of the goods being transported, including the names of the shipper and consignee, and it is used for customs clearance and cargo tracking purposes. The manifest is an important document in the transportation industry, as it helps ensure that the goods and people being transported are accounted for and arrive at their intended destination safely and securely.
