===Civilian usage===
As a civilian starliner, the Egret was the single-most common civilian transport found in the [[Inner Colonies|core worlds]]. During the [[Siege of the Inner Colonies]], they were often shot down by [[Covenant]] forces while attempting to evacuate civilians from cities under attack.{{Ref/Reuse|Enc22}}
===Attacks in the Epsilon Eridani system===
===Attacks in the Epsilon Eridani system===
In use during the [[Battle of Tribute]] and the [[Fall of Reach]], at least five were used to evacuate both [[UNSC Army|soldiers]] and [[civilian]]s from [[New Alexandria (location)|New Alexandria]] during the [[Covenant]] invasion of Reach. [[Siege of New Alexandria|During this evacuation]], [[6 Echo 2|one]] of these ships was destroyed upon take-off from the [[New Alexandria Starport]]. The craft were under attack from Covenant ground forces and were close to being overrun, while an {{Pattern|Ceudar|heavy corvette}} over the starport prevented them from taking off. As the situation got desperate, [[SPARTAN-B312]] fired a missile battery at the corvette, severely damaging it and forcing the corvette to retreat, just in time for the transports which were able to take off and get to safety.{{Ref/Level|Id=exodus|Halo: Reach|[[Exodus]]}} Around this time, such craft were used to evacuate the populace of [[Casbah]] [[City]], [[Tribute]], another [[planet]] in the [[Epsilon Eridani system]].{{Ref/Map|Id=landfall|Halo 4|[[Landfall (level)|Landfall]]}}
