Get away on Tuesday, fast! (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fleet

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'fast' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'get away on tuesday' is the wordplay.
'get away' becomes 'flee' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'tuesday' becomes 't'.
'flee'+'t'='FLEET'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for fleet that I've seen before include "Street of the hack" , "Swift; group of ships" , "Body of ships" , "Fast as a naval unit" , "Naval force or collection of buses" .)
