What is the difference between international and domestic flights?

A domestic flight is one that departs and arrives within the same country. In comparison, an international flight is one that departs and arrives in two different countries. The security and departure procedures will be different: when travelling domestically, for example, in most instances you can fly with any valid form of identification, rather than just your passport. Domestic flights are also usually shorter-haul. Because of this, the onboard services may differ: on longer haul flights, snacks/meals/drinks might be complimentary, for example.
