Tesc lesson-1 (1)
1. Lesson 1 – At the Airport
Hello and welcome to Lesson 1 of the Travel English Speaking Course!
Today we’re going to go through the airport step by step, learning
important vocabulary and useful phrases along the way. Let’s imagine
you’re flying from New York City to Los Angeles.
Situation 1: At the check-in desk
Agent: Good afternoon! Where are you flying to today?
You: Los Angeles.
Agent: May I have your passport, please?
You: Here you go.
Agent: Are you checking any bags?
You: Just this one.
Agent: OK, please place your bag on the scale.
You: I have a stopover in Chicago – do I need to pick up my luggage there?
www.english-speaking-only.com
2. Agent: No, it’ll go straight through to Los Angeles. Here are your boarding
passes – your flight leaves from gate 15A and it’ll begin boarding at 3:20.
Your seat number is 26E.
You: Thanks.
Common phrases and vocabulary words:
• Instead of “Where are you flying today?” the agent may ask
“What’s your final destination?” The answer will be the same!
• You can say “Here you go” when you give something to somebody
• To check your bags means to put them on the airplane inside the
cargo compartment. The small bag you take with you on the airplane
is called a carry-on. You need to put your carry-on bags through the
X-ray machine at security.
• The scale is the equipment that tells you the weight of your luggage
(45 kilograms, for example)
• A stopover or layover is when the airplane stops in a different city
before continuing to the final destination
• If the agent says that your luggage will go straight through, it
means it will go directly to the final destination (and you don’t need
to pick it up during your stopover)
• Boarding passes are the tickets that permit you to enter the
airplane
• When a plane begins boarding, it means that the passengers start to
enter the plane. Usually boarding time is 30-60 minutes before
takeoff (when the plane leaves)
Tips and Suggestions:
• If you don’t know where the check-in desk is, you can ask an airport
employee, “Excuse me, where is the Delta check-in
desk?” or, “Excuse me, where is the American Airlines
check-in desk?”
• If your bag is heavier than the weight limits, or if your bag is larger
than the size limits, you may need to pay an oversized baggage
fee oroverweight baggage fee (this can be $75 to $300). Some
www.english-speaking-only.com
3. airlines in the United States also charge a fee for ALL checked bags
(usually $15 to $30).
• If you have fragile or sensitive items in your bag that might break, you
can ask the agent, “Please mark this bag as ‘fragile.’”
• If you want to ask if the flight will leave at the correct time, you can
say,“Is the flight on schedule?” The agent will respond either
“Yes” if the flight is on time, or “There’s a 20-minute delay” (for
example) if the flight will leave later than expected.
Extra questions in the U.S.
On flights going to or inside the U.S., you will probably be asked some extra
security questions before or during check-in. Here are some sample
questions and the correct responses:
Agent: Did you pack your bags yourself?
You: Yes.
Agent: Are you carrying any firearms or flammable materials?
You: No.
Agent: Has your luggage been in your possession at all times?
You: Yes.
*Be careful here – some agents ask if your luggage has been “in your
possession at all times” and others ask if your luggage has been “outside
your supervision (or possession) at any time.” The answer to the first
question is YES and the answer to the second question would be NO.
Agent: Has anyone given you anything to carry on the flight?
You: No.
Agent: Are you aware of the regulations regarding liquids in your carry-on,
which must 3.4 ounces or less and placed inside a single quart-sized
transparent plastic bag?
You: Yes.
* If you want to take any liquids on a flight in the United States, they must
be 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) or less and you must put them all in a clear
www.english-speaking-only.com
4. (transparent) plastic bag. Each passenger can take only one bag on the
plane. If you have bigger bottles of liquid (like shampoo, wine, etc) you
need to put them into your checked bag.

Situation 2: Going through security
There are two pieces of equipment in security: you put your bags through
the X-ray machine, and you walk through the metal detector. The Xray machine has a conveyor belt that moves your bags automatically
through the machine. You can put small items like keys or money into
plastic bins.

5. Photo taken and uploaded by de:Benutzer:Ralf Roletschek
Modified by Shayna Oliveira
Agent: Please lay your bags flat on the conveyor belt, and use the bins for
small objects.
You: “Do I need to take my laptop out of the bag?
Agent: Yes, you do. Take off your hat and your shoes, too.
(you walk through the metal detector)
[BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP]
Agent: Please go back. Do you have anything in your pockets – keys, cell
phone, loose change?
You: I don’t think so. Let me try taking off my belt.
Agent: Okay, come on through.
(you go through the metal detector again)
Agent: You’re all set! Have a nice flight.
The phrase “you’re all set” is a common expression that means “you’re
finished and everything is OK.”
Phrasal Verb focus: SET OFF and GO OFF
When the alarm sounds, we say “the alarm went off.” To describe
what caused the alarm to sound, we say “set off” – for example, “My keys
set off the alarm” or “My keys set off the metal detector.”
www.english-speaking-only.com
6. Situation 3: At the gate
Airports are divided into terminals (the major sections of the airport) and
each terminal has many gates. The gate is the door you go through to
enter the airplane. Here are a few announcements you might hear while you
are at the gate, waiting for the plane to board.
“Attention passengers of United Airlines flight 880. There has
been a gate change. United Airlines flight 880 will now be leaving
from gate 12.”
(Travel Tip: Know your flight number in English, so that you can pay
attention to the announcement and know if you need to go to a different
gate.)
“United Airlines flight 880 to Miami is now boarding.”
(this means it’s time for passengers to enter the plane)
“We would like to invite our first- and business-class passengers,
Star Club Premium members, and passengers requiring special
assistance to board at gate 12.”
(this means that passengers who are “special” (first class, business class, or
in the Star Club) or passengers who are elderly (old), disabled, pregnant, or
with small children can go into the airplane first.)
www.english-speaking-only.com
7. “We would now like to invite all passengers seated in Zone 2 –
that’s rows 16-35 – to begin boarding United Airlines flight 880
at gate 12.”
(look at your boarding pass to know your “zone number” and what “row”
your seat number is)
“We would now like to invite all passengers to board United
Airlines flight 880 to Miami at gate 12.”
(this means everyone can enter the plane)
“This is the last call for United Airlines flight 880 to Miami, now
boarding at gate number 12.”
(this means it is the FINAL OPPORTUNITY to enter the plane before they
close the doors)
“Passenger John Smith. Passenger John Smith, please proceed
to the United Airlines desk at gate 12.”
(sometimes the announcement will call a specific passenger by name. The
word “proceed” in this context is a formal way to say “go.”)
Situation 4: On the plane
The people who work inside the airplane
serving food and drinks are called flight
attendants. Both men and women who
have this job are called flight attendants.
Attribution: Kristoferb at en.wikipedia
Flight attendant: Chicken or pasta?
You: Sorry?
Flight attendant: Would you like chicken or pasta?
www.english-speaking-only.com
8. You: I’ll have the chicken.
Flight attendant: Anything to drink?
You: What kind of soda do you have?
Flight attendant: Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Orange, and Dr. Pepper.
You: A Diet Coke, no ice, please.
Flight attendant: Here you go.
You: Thanks.
Conversation Tips:
• If you didn’t understand what the flight attendant said, you can say
Sorry? or Pardon? to ask him or her to repeat it.
• If you want to ask for something, you can use the phrase “Can I
have…” For example:
•
Can I have a blanket?
Can I have a pair of headphones?
(or: Can I have a headset?)

9. Can I have some water?
Can I have some extra napkins?
Can I have a decaf coffee?*
Image source: Julius Schorzman
* There are two types of coffee – regular coffee, which has caffeine. This
is the type of coffee that helps keep you awake. There is also Decaf coffee
– this is short for “decaffeinated coffee” – and this type has no caffeine. It’s
good to drink decaf coffee if you like the taste of coffee, but you want to go
to sleep soon.
Finally, if you need to stand up, but there is a person sitting between you
and the aisle, you can say Excuse me and make a motion to start standing
up. The person sitting next to you will understand and stand up to let you
get out of your seat.
