Starliner

A starliner was identified as a type of transport which operated in Federation space. Starliners were easy prey, especially for ambitious warlords on non-aligned worlds. An unnamed starliner experienced such a fate in 2319 when Peretor Karnas seized command of the starship and ransomed the 63 people on board for weapons. 

Colony ships, such as the USS Constantinople, were occasionally identified as starliners. (}
