1
Hello everyone and welcome back to Mr. English Channel.
2
I'm Emily.
3
And I'm Paul.
4
We are so happy to have you with us today for another fun and helpful English episode.
5
Yes, we are.
6
Today we have a super exciting love to travel or if you plan to travel soon.
7
We're going to talk all about at the airport, real life English situations.
8
Oh, I love this topic, Emily.
9
Airports can be a bit confusing sometimes, right?
10
But with a little English, it becomes much easier.
11
Exactly.
12
And before we start our amazing airport adventure, please, please, please remember to like this video,
13
share it with your friends and subscribe to Mr English Channel if you haven't yet.
14
It really helps us a lot.
15
Yes, subscribe and hit that notification bell so you don't miss any of our new lessons.
16
Okay, Emily, are you ready to fly into our topic?
17
Ready, Paul?
18
Let's go.
19
So, Emily, Imagine you just arrived at a big airport.
20
Maybe you took a taxi or a bus.
21
What's the first thing you usually need to do?
22
Hmm, good question.
23
Usually the first thing is to find the right terminal.
24
Airports can have many terminals, right?
25
So I might need to ask for directions.
26
Yes, that's very important.
27
How would you ask for directions in English?
28
I might say, "Excuse me, where is Terminal 2?" or "Can you tell me how to get to Terminal 3?" Simple and clear.
29
Perfect.
30
And if you don't know the terminal number, you could also say, "Excuse me,
31
where is the departure area for international flights?" Sometimes you just need to know if it's for international or domestic flights.
32
Oh, that's a good tip, Paul.
33
Yes, domestic means flights inside the country, and international means flights to other countries.
34
Good to know.
35
Okay, so you've found the right terminal.
36
Now it's time to check in for your flight.
37
This is where you talk to the airline staff.
38
Right.
39
You have your ticket or maybe just your passport and you go to the airline desk.
40
What do you say?
41
I usually say, "Hi, I have a flight to London.
42
My name is Emily Smith." Or, "Good morning, I'm checking in for flight BA246 to New York." Great!
43
And the person at the desk will ask you for your passport.
44
They might say, "Can I see your passport, please?" or "Passport, please?" Yes, and then they will ask about your luggage.
45
"Do you have any checked bags today?" or "Are you checking any luggage?" Ah,
46
checked bags are the big bags that go inside the plane, not with you in the cabin.
47
What if you want a window seat?
48
"Oh, I always want a window seat." I would say, "Can I have a window seat, please?" Or, If I prefer the other side,
49
can I have an aisle seat?
50
An aisle seat is the one next to the walkway.
51
Yes, the aisle is the walk space.
52
And sometimes they ask, would you prefer a window or an aisle seat so you can choose?
53
Good job!
54
Speaking of bags, Emily, sometimes we have many bags or heavy bags.
55
It's good to know the baggage rules, right?
56
Oh yes, Paul, this is super important.
57
If your bag is too heavy, you might have to pay extra money.
58
So I might ask, what is the weight limit for checked bags?
59
Excellent question.
60
They might say 23 kilograms or 50 pounds.
61
And what about the bag you take with you inside the plane?
62
That's the carry -on bag or hand luggage.
63
I can ask, "Can I take this bag as a carry -on?" or, "Is this bag okay for a carry -on?" Yes, exactly.
64
And remember, for carry -on bags, there are also rules about liquids, like water or shampoo.
65
You can't take big bottles of water.
66
Oh, that's true.
67
So it's good to ask if you are not sure.
68
Are there any restrictions on liquids in my carry -on?
69
Okay, Paul.
70
After checking in, the next big step is airport security.
71
This can feel a bit serious, but it's for everyone's safety.
72
Yes, it is.
73
You need to put your bags on a belt and sometimes take off your shoes or belt.
74
What do they ask you to do?
75
They might say, "Please take off your shoes and belt." Or, "Please put your laptop in a separate bin." A bin is like a small plastic box.
76
And sometimes they ask, "Do you have any liquids or electronics?" Yes, and it's important to say, "No, I don't," if you don't have them,
77
or, "Yes, I do, they are in the bin," if you put them there.
78
And remember to smile.
79
Yes, a smile always helps.
80
After your bags go through the scanner, you walk through a metal detector.
81
Sometimes it beeps.
82
Oh, when it beeps, they might say "Please step back" or "Please empty your pockets." Then you try again.
83
It's usually very quick.
84
Whew, security is done.
85
Now you need to find your gate.
86
This is where you wait for your plane.
87
How do you find it, Emily?
88
First, I look at my boarding pass.
89
It tells me the gate number.
90
For example, gate 34.
91
Then, I look for signs in the airport.
92
They usually say "gates" with arrows.
93
Yes, signs are super helpful in airports.
94
But what if you can't find your gate, or you're not sure?
95
Then I ask for help.
96
I might say, "Excuse me, where is gate 34?" or "Can you help me find my gate?" Good idea.
97
You can ask airport staff or even other passengers.
98
They usually know.
99
And sometimes the gate number might change, so it's good to check the big screens that show flight information.
100
Yes, those big screens are very important.
101
They show your flight number, destination, departure time, and gate number.
102
Always check them again.
103
So, you found your gate.
104
Now you usually have some time to wait.
105
What do you do, Paul?
106
Hmm, I usually find a seat and relax.
107
Maybe I read a book or listen to music.
108
Sometimes I hear announcements.
109
Yes, announcements tell you important information,
110
like "Flight BA246 is now boarding" or "There is a delay for Flight LH450."
111
A delay means the plane will leave later than planned.
112
Not fun, but it happens.
113
Sometimes I talk to other passengers.
114
I might say, "Are you also going to New York?" That's nice.
115
It's a good way to practice your English.
116
And if you hear flight BA246 is now boarding, it means it's time to get ready to go on the plane.
117
Woo -hoo!
118
Okay, Emily.
119
This part happens when you arrive in a new country.
120
You need to talk to an immigration officer.
121
They check your passport and ask some questions.
122
Yes.
123
This can feel a bit nerve -wracking, but it's okay.
124
They just want to know why you are visiting.
125
They might say, purpose of your visit.
126
And you can say, "For tourism" or "For a vacation." What else might they ask?
127
They often ask, "How long will you stay?" And I say, "For two weeks, or for ten days." They also ask,
128
"I'm going to go to the next Where will you stay?
129
Ah, your hotel.
130
You can say "at the Hilton Hotel" or "with my family in London".
131
and it's good to have your hotel reservation or address ready.
132
Yes, definitely.
133
And sometimes they ask for your return ticket.
134
Do you have a return ticket?
135
And you say, "Yes, here it is." They just want to know you will leave the country.
136
That's right.
137
They are just doing their job to make sure everything is safe and clear.
138
So, you are at the gate, they announce boarding, and now it's time to get on the plane.
139
This is exciting!
140
Yes!
141
You need to show your boarding pass again.
142
The person at the gate will say: Boarding pass, please.
143
and then you walk onto the plane.
144
You look for your seat number.
145
The seats have numbers and letters, like 23A or 15C.
146
I look at my boarding pass again.
147
Yes, and you can say, excuse me, where is seat 23A if you can't find it?
148
The flight attendants can help you.
149
Exactly.
150
And once you find your seat, you put your carry -on bag in the overhead compartment.
151
That's the space above your head, or under the seat in front of you and then you sit down and get ready for the flight.
152
Almost there.
153
Now you're on the plane, comfortable in your seat.
154
During the flight, you might need something.
155
Who do you talk to, Paul?
156
You talk to the flight attendant.
157
They are there to help you.
158
If you need a drink, you can say, "Excuse me, can I have some water, please?" Yes.
159
Or, "Can I have a juice?" or Do you have any snacks?
160
They usually offer some snacks and drinks.
161
What if you are cold?
162
I can ask, "May I have a blanket, please?" And if I need to go to the bathroom, I can ask, "Where is the restroom,
163
please?" or "Where is the lavatory?" Lavatory is another word for restroom on a plane.
164
Good to know that word, Emily.
165
And if you don't feel well, You can tell them, "I don't feel well." They can help you.
166
Yes, they are very helpful.
167
They want you to have a good flight.
168
Okay.
169
The flight is over.
170
You landed in your destination.
171
Now you need to get your checked bags.
172
Yes, you follow the signs that say "baggage claim" or "baggage reclaim".
173
They usually have a number for your flight, like Carousel 5.
174
A carousel is the big moving belt where the bags come out.
175
You find your flight number on the screen and it tells you
176
which carousel to go to and you wait for your bag.
177
Sometimes bags look very similar, so it's good to have a colorful tag or something unique on your bag.
178
That's smart.
179
But what if your bag doesn't come out?
180
Oh no!
181
Oh, that's not good.
182
If your bag is lost, you need to go to the Lost and Found desk, or the baggage services desk for your airline.
183
You can say, My bag is lost.
184
or, I can't find my luggage.
185
They will ask for your baggage tag, which you get when you check in your bag.
186
So keep that safe.
187
Yes, always keep your baggage tag.
188
It has a number that helps them find your bag.
189
Wow, Emily, we covered so much today, from arriving at the airport to picking up your luggage.
190
Yes, Paul!
191
I hope this episode helps all our listeners feel more confident when they travel.
192
Learning these simple English phrases makes a big difference.
193
Absolutely.
194

195

Sobre esta lección
¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
