MẪU CÂU TIẾNG ANH VỀ TALKING ABOUT  AIRPORT

Are you ready to take a trip? We’re going to start a series of lessons on practical English for use while traveling. Today we’re going to go through the airport step by step, learning important vocabulary and useful phrases along the way.

 Conversation #1 – At the Check-In Desk 
 

TIẾNG ANH TIẾNG VIỆT
Dan is flying from New York to Los Angeles. When he arrives at the airport, he goes to the check-in desk. Listen to the conversation he has with the agent:
Agent: Good afternoon! Where are you flying to today?
Dan: Los Angeles.
Agent: May I have your passport, please?
Dan: Here you go.
Agent: Are you checking any bags?
Dan: Just this one.
Agent: OK, please place your bag on the scale.
Dan: I have a stopover in Chicago – do I need to pick up my luggage there?
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.
Dan: Thanks.

Dan đang bay từ New York đến Los Angeles. Khi đến sân bay, anh đến quầy làm thủ tục. Hãy lắng nghe cuộc trò chuyện của anh ấy với người đại diện:
Đại lý: Chào buổi chiều! Hôm nay bạn bay đến đâu?
Đan: Los Angeles.
Đại lý: Tôi có thể có hộ chiếu của bạn, xin vui lòng?
Đan: Của bạn đây.
Đại lý: Bạn có đang kiểm tra túi nào không?
Đan: Chỉ cái này thôi.
Đại lý: OK, vui lòng đặt túi của bạn lên bàn cân.
Đan: Tôi có một điểm dừng ở Chicago – tôi có cần lấy hành lý ở đó không?
Đại lý: Không, nó sẽ đi thẳng đến Los Angeles. Đây là thẻ lên máy bay của bạn – chuyến bay của bạn khởi hành từ cổng 15A và sẽ bắt đầu lên máy bay lúc 3:20. Số ghế của bạn là 26E.
Đan: Cảm ơn.

Conversation Vocabulary and Phrases

  •  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” anytime 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)

Other Questions & Phrases for the Airport

  •  “Excuse me, where is the American Airlines check-in desk?”
  •  “How many bags can I check?”
  •  “Will my luggage go straight through, or do I need to pick it up in [Chicago]?”
  •  “How much is the fee?”

If your bag is heavier than the weight limits, or if your bag is larger than the size limits, you may need to pay extra: an oversized baggage fee or overweight baggage fee (this can be $75 to $300). Some airlines in the United States also charge a fee for ALL checked bags (usually $15 to $30).

  •  “Please mark this bag as ‘fragile.’”

Say this if you have fragile or sensitive items in your bag that might break

  •  “Is the flight on time?”

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 might be asked some extra security
questions before or during check-in. Here are some sample questions:

Answer YES to these questions:

  •  Did you pack your bags yourself?
  •  Has your luggage been in your possession at all times?
  •  Are you aware of the regulations regarding liquids in your carry-on?

(Liquids must be 100 mL or less, and stored in a single quart-sized clear plastic bag. More information: TSA.gov)

Answer NO to these questions:

  •  Are you carrying any firearms or flammable materials?
  •  Have you left your luggage unattended at any time?
  •  Has anyone given you anything to carry on the flight?

 Conversation #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. Some airports also use a body
scanner
for a more careful check.
The X-ray 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.

In the picture below, the woman is walking through the metal detector.
Her suitcase is on the conveyor belt after going through the X-ray machine.

TIẾNG ANH TIẾNG VIỆT

Agent: Please lay your bags flat on the conveyor belt, and use the bins for small objects.
Dan: Do I need to take my laptop out of the bag?
Agent: Yes, you do. Take off your hat and your shoes, too.
(he walks through the metal detector)
[BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP]
Agent: Please step back. Do you have anything in your pockets – keys, cell phone, loose change?
Dan: I don’t think so. Let me try taking off my belt.
Agent: Okay, come on through.

(he goes through the metal detector again)
Agent: You’re all set! Have a nice flight.

Đại lý: Vui lòng đặt túi của bạn nằm phẳng trên băng chuyền và sử dụng các thùng cho các đồ vật nhỏ.
Đan: Tôi có cần lấy máy tính xách tay ra khỏi túi không?
Đại lý: Có, bạn làm. Cởi mũ và giày của bạn, quá.
(anh ấy đi qua máy dò kim loại)
[BÍP BÍP BÍP BÍP]
Đại lý: Xin hãy lùi lại. Bạn có bất cứ thứ gì trong túi không – chìa khóa, điện thoại di động, tiền lẻ?
Đan: Tôi không nghĩ vậy. Để tôi thử cởi thắt lưng.
Đại lý: Được rồi, đi qua.

(anh ấy lại đi qua máy dò kim loại)
Đại lý: Bạn đã sẵn sàng! Có một chuyến bay tốt đẹp.

The phrase “you’re all set” is a common expression that means “you’re finished and everything is OK.”
Phrasal Verbs: 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.”

Announcements 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.

  •  “There has been a gate change.”

(this means the flight will leave from a different gate)

  •  “United Airlines flight 880 to Miami is now boarding.”

(this means it’s time for passengers to enter the plane)

  •  “Please have your boarding pass and identification ready for boarding.”
  •  “We would like to invite our first- and business-class passengers to board.”
  •  “We are now inviting passengers with small children and any passengers requiring special assistance to begin boarding.”
  •  “We would now like to invite all passengers to board.”

     (this means everyone can enter the plane)

  •  “This is the final boarding call for United Airlines flight 880 to Miami.”

     (this means it is the FINAL OPPORTUNITY to enter the plane before they close the doors)

  •  “Passenger John Smith, please proceed to the United Airlines desk at gate 12.”

 Conversation #3: On the plane 

TIẾNG ANH TIẾNG VIỆT

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. Listen to this conversation that Dan has with the flight attendant when dinner is served on the flight.
Flight attendant: Chicken or pasta?
Dan: Sorry?
Flight attendant: Would you like chicken or pasta?
Dan: I’ll have the chicken.
Flight attendant: Anything to drink?
Dan: What kind of soda do you have?
Flight attendant: Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Orange, and Dr. Pepper.
Dan: A Diet Coke, no ice, please.
Flight attendant: Here you go.

Dan: Thanks.

Những người làm công việc phục vụ đồ ăn, thức uống bên trong máy bay được gọi là tiếp viên hàng không. Cả nam và nữ làm công việc này đều được gọi là tiếp viên hàng không. Hãy nghe đoạn hội thoại này của Dan với tiếp viên hàng không khi bữa tối được phục vụ trên chuyến bay.
Tiếp viên hàng không: Gà hay mì ống?
Đan: Xin lỗi?
Tiếp viên hàng không: Bạn muốn gà hay mì ống?
Đan: Tôi sẽ có con gà.
Tiếp viên hàng không: Có gì để uống không?
Đan: Bạn có loại soda nào?
Tiếp viên hàng không: Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Orange và Dr. Pepper.
Đan: Làm ơn cho một cốc Diet Coke, không đá.
Tiếp viên hàng không: Của anh đây.

Đan: Cảm ơn.

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...?” or “Could I have...?” Practice your pronunciation with these common requests:

  •  “Can I have a pillow?”
  •  “Can I have a blanket?”
  •  “Can I have a pair of headphones/earbuds?”
  •  “Could I have some water/coffee/tea?”
  •  “Could I have some extra napkins?”

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.
