dans vs par

In one of the previous lesson it was taught that we can use "par" with planes, here I use par but it was market incorrectly.

This question relates to:French lesson "Differences between French and English usages - Using "dans" with streets and means of transportation (French Prepositions of Location)"

Bonjour Abdul,

When you are talking how you are travelling, then you will use à for "individual" modes of transport (walking, bicycle, bike etc), en for "group" modes of transport (bus, coach, car, subway, etc) or par with planes.

If you are talking which means of transport you are "on", then you'll use "dans" (as in "inside").

See here: Question regarding En vs Dans

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
