As we have commercialized the sky we have developed uniform rules and routes

Pilots follow assigned routes for going from place to place; and there are even “lanes” just like on a road.

If you have 2 planes flying to London and one leaves from Washington DC and one from Baltimore; they will fly almost the exact same route….but one in lane a and one in lane b to keep them separated
