'arrival-focused' is a modern English compound formed from the noun 'arrival' + the adjective 'focused', where 'arrival' means 'the action or process of arriving' and 'focused' means 'having attention directed toward something'.

'arrival' comes from the verb 'arrive' + the noun-forming suffix '-al'. 'Arrive' entered Middle English from Old French 'arriver', which originally meant 'to reach (the shore) or come to land.'

The element 'arrive' originally had a concrete sense of 'come to shore/land' and later generalized to 'come to a place or reach an endpoint'; combined with 'focused' in modern usage it has taken the compound meaning 'having attention directed to arrival/arrival outcomes.'
