Usage Note
Destino primarily means fate or destiny (è il mio destino = it is my fate), but in travel contexts it also means 'destination' (il destino del volo = the flight destination), though destinazione is more precise for the latter. Per destino or per fato means 'by fate.' Do not confuse with destinazione (destination, address) in formal or written contexts.
