What is the phonetic designation for the letter "H"?

The phonetic designation for the letter "H" is "Hotel." In the context of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) phonetic alphabet, which is widely used in aviation and by various communication systems to avoid misunderstandings, each letter is assigned a unique word that begins with that letter.

Using "Hotel" to represent "H" helps ensure clarity in verbal communication, particularly in situations where miscommunication could be critical, such as in radio transmissions or during customer service interactions. This is especially important when spelling names, addresses, or other pertinent information.

The other choices represent different letters in the phonetic alphabet: "India" stands for "I," "Juliette" stands for "J," and "Kilo" stands for "K." These words are used for their respective letters and are part of a system designed to provide a clear and standardized way to communicate letters over the radio or telephone.
