Hello, and welcome back to my Slow English Podcast.

Today, we are at the airport.

We are going to take a flight.

Join us.

The automatic doors slide open and right away you see the FIDS board,

the flight information display system,

where you can see your flight status,

whether it's on time, delayed or cancelled.

Then we found our check-in counter.

We were flying with AirAsia,

so we had to find the AirAsia check-in counter.

I am in line to check in.

Some people prefer the self-check-in kiosk,

but I don't like this self-check-in system as much.

Sometimes it makes me nervous.

I prefer to check-in at a counter with a real person.

What about you?

Do you prefer the check-in counter or the self-check-in kiosk?

I am taking the escalator, the electric stairs.

You can also take the elevator,

but only if you need it.

Maybe if you have big luggage or you're in a wheelchair,

but it's exclusive for people who need the elevator.

I'm okay with taking the escalator, the electric stairs.

We got some lunch before our flight.

We were close to international arrivals.

But we had to get to international departures.

Because we were departing, not arriving.

I got my passport ready.

and my ticket,

and we passed through the security checkpoint where you have to take out anything metal like keys,

bracelets, coins or change, your computer or laptop,

your phone, your headphones and sometimes even your shoes the queue

or line was very long

but once we got through security we were in

i always love the duty-free stores they're super expensive but i like

looking through each store while I wait.

We walk past Cartier

and Starbucks as we make our way to our gate by following the signs

with gate number instructions on them.

It was super useful that they put how long of a walk each gate was at.

10 minutes, 5 minutes, 1 minute.

That way, you're not super rushed

or in a hurry to get to your gate when you still have lots of time to get there.

when it's only a five-minute walk.

And you also know if you need to hurry,

if you need to rush to your gate.

I usually eat something while I wait at my gate.

I wait at my boarding gate.

It can be long sometimes,

so I usually get some dessert.

This one was a sweet bean dessert in Thailand.

It was so sweet.

I loved it.

I'm curious, have you ever tried one of these little sweet treats?

What do you think of them?

Before boarding, I always go to the bathroom.

I make sure I have my two bags and then we get on the airport shuttle bus.

This shuttle drives us to the airplane.

Sometimes we take a shuttle to a plane and sometimes you just go straight through and board the plane.

I prefer going straight to the plane,

but sometimes you have to take a shuttle.

The shuttle took all of the passengers to the plane and then we waited in line to board.

We had to climb stairs to board our plane.

We walked through the aisle of the plane

and we put our luggage in the overhead bin right above

our seats here i am sitting in the aisle seat because i'm right next to the aisle

this is my personal favorite seat because i can get up and go to the bathroom

however many times I need.

And I use the bathroom a lot.

I love a plane with screens to watch movies on.

This plane was super empty,

so I got a window seat.

The aisle seat and the middle seat were both empty.

So I chose the window seat.

And then we are ready to take off.

The plane drives on the runway for a little while.

And once it gains enough speed, we take off.

And then I'm ready to put on my sleep mask and take a long nap.

The best way to spend a flight is sleeping through it.

On long flights, They normally give you a pillow and a blanket.

And you get to watch movies on the flight.

On long flights, I always bring my neck pillow.

And I like watching the screen to see how far we have traveled.

I also like just looking at the world and learning about different countries that I've never heard of before.

During my flights, I like to work on my computer.

And during longer flights, I love how they tint out the windows so that even if it's sunny outside,

it will seem like it's nighttime.

It makes the sun look very pretty.

Then the sun rises and I think it's almost time to land.

Finally, I wait my turn to get off the plane.

I get my bags down from the overhead bin and we walk out.

There is normally an escalator to get to immigration or passport control.

You scan your passport and maybe talk to some immigration officer and then you're there.

In the country you want to be in.

But if you have a layover,

you normally still have to go through passport control, depending on the country.

But you just don't leave the airport.

You stay.

100

When I have layovers, I usually stop by the food court where I can find pizza,

101

Mexican food, Chinese food, or McDonald's.

102

This time I got an orange smoothie and a croissant sandwich.

103

I eat during my layovers.

104

Then I make my way to my gate again.

105

Now this gate is to get me to my final destination,

106

not just my layover.

107

I saw these super cool suitcases.

108

You can drive and sit down on them.

109

That way you don't need to walk.

110

Now, sometimes your next gate is at a different terminal.

111

Maybe you're at terminal 1 and your next flight leaves at terminal 4.

112

Maybe terminal A and you need to get to terminal F.

113

depending on the airport.

114

So, you need to take the airport train or airport shuttle.

115

So, you look at the signs and you follow them to the airport shuttle.

116

And that takes you to your next terminal.

117

This flight left from terminal 4.

118

So, I took the shuttle from Terminal 1 to Terminal 4.

119

I love walking on the moving walkway or the moving sidewalks.

120

I feel like I'm flying.

121

Here, I looked so tired.

122

I barely got any sleep.

123

So, I ordered a juice and I edited for a little while.

124

Then, it's time to wait at your gate.

125

You don't want to wait somewhere else because you might miss your flight.

126

Finally, you land at your final destination,

127

whether that's home or a place you want to travel or the home of someone you love.

128

But if you checked a bag,

129

then you need to go get your bag at the luggage carousel.

130

You check your gate and your flight to make sure it's the same as yours,

131

and you wait until you see your luggage pass by.

132

I don't know about you,

133

but I love my airport outfits.

134

They are super cozy.

135

Here's one.

136

A baggy shirt, my high bun,

137

and some very loose pants.

138

Now here's a little story time of when I lost my passport in Beijing.

139

Have you ever lost your passport?

140

I am at the airport.

141

This is my airport outfit.

142

What do you wear?

143

to the airport.

144

I feel so comfy.

145

Like I'm wearing a blanket.

146

I have two big backpacks.

147

One is a carry-on, and the other one is a personal item.

148

I am at the Beijing airport.

149

But I'm not staying here.

150

Beijing is just my layover to go to Bangkok, Thailand.

151

My final destination is Bangkok, Thailand.

152

But don't worry, I will be back to Beijing in one week to visit the city.

153

My flight from Tijuana to Beijing was 12 hours long.

154

I'm super jet-lagged and I still have another four hours.

155

And actually, I was so stressed out about getting WiFi to work on my videos,

156

editing, answering emails that I forgot my passport.

157

I left it on the table and I walked away searching for Wi-Fi.

158

I realized I lost my passport and I ran desperately looking and asking everyone.

159

But nobody speaks English.

160

So I was super stressed just a minute ago.

161

Now I'm a lot more relaxed.

162

I don't have Wi-Fi, but now I know it could be much worse.

163

Sometimes life just teaches you lessons that you need at that moment

164

to really appreciate what you do have and not stress about little things like Wi-Fi.

165

Have you ever lost your passport before?

166

Alright guys, thank you so much for joining me.

167

I hope you learned some new English vocabulary and I hope this helps you in the future.

168

If you're ever traveling anywhere and you need to find your passport or your gate number or your terminal,

169

if you're feeling nervous about traveling somewhere and not knowing what to do,

170

use this video to guide you through that unknown vocabulary at airports.

171

Have a beautiful day and don't stop learning.

172

See you next time.

173

Bye.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
