Getting the TOBT

ATC: "ICE123, report your target off-block time."
Pilot: "Target off-block 1420, ICE123."

If the pilot does not know the term: "ICE123, when will you be ready to push back?"

No CTOT:

"ICE123, cleared to London Heathrow via DELES2C departure, runway 19, squawk 2341. Expect start-up at 1425, call ready for start-up."

With a CTOT:

"ICE123, cleared to London Heathrow via DELES2C departure, runway 19, squawk 2341. Slot 1450, expect start-up at 1435, call ready for start-up."

The pilot reads back the slot and the start-up time. With slot 1450, take-off must be between 1445 and 1500.
