English Lesson At The Airport
A2
Hey everybody. It's Ariannita la Gringa and welcome back to my YouTube channel. Can you guys
guess where I'm at today? Well, today I'm at the airport and I'm going to teach you guys airport
vocabulary. And how did I get to the airport? Well, today I drove up to the airport and I parked
my car inside the parking garage. If you don't want to park your car inside the parking garage
because it can be expensive, then you can get dropped off by an Uber, taxi, or by your friend
or family member. And you get dropped off at the departures. Right now we're at the departures and
today I'm at the airport because I have a flight to catch to go to Orlando, Florida. This is one of
the most requested videos on my channel. I'm so excited to teach all of you guys airport
vocab. So let's go! Now I'm walking through these sliding doors and I'm finally inside the airport.
Before coming to the airport, you need to book a flight ticket. When you book a flight ticket you
reserve the seat. For example if you want to show up to the airport without booking a flight ticket
the seats may be sold out and you may not have a seat on the plane. So booking your flight ticket
months or weeks in advance will allow you to have a seat on the flight. I booked my flight 1 month
ago and I can check-in on the app or I can check in at the airport. Before heading through security
(going through the departure gates), I need to check-in my bag (my suitcase) because it's too
big to fit on the airplane. If this suitcase was smaller, it would be a carry-on but I'm allowed to
have one personal item this is a backpack. And I'm allowed to have another carry-on suitcase,
but because this suitcase is too big let's go ahead and check it in. As I said before,
I have to check in this huge suitcase at the counter because this suitcase will not fit in
the overhead bins inside the airplane so it will have to go underneath the airplane. I also have to
check-in and get my boarding pass at the counter. Now I will check-in my bag but where do I go? You
have to check-in your bag with your airline. I'm going to check-in my bag with my Airline,
Frontier. But this airport has a ton of different options for Airlines. They
have Frontier, they have Allegiant, Delta, American Airlines, Southwest,
and many more. Let's go check-in my bag and check-in for my boarding pass with Frontier.
Now I'm approaching the ticket counter to check.in my bag. It's time to check my bag.
For security reasons, I can't record people working inside the airport. Can I see an ID?
Here's my ID. You can go ahead and place your bag on the scale. My bag is on the scale and
it weighs thirty-one and a half pounds. If my bag would've weighed over forty pounds,
I would have had to pay a fee. Any lithium batteries, E-Cigarettes, medicine in this bag?
No. There you go!I just checked-in my luggage and now I have to go through security to get to
my gate. But how do I get through security? I need my ID and I also need my boarding pass which is on
my phone. For my ID, I will just use my driver's license because I am traveling domestically which
means I'm traveling within the United States. But if I were to travel internationally like
going to Europe or going to Latin America, I would need a passport, not an ID. Now that I
have both my boarding pass and my ID I am ready to pass through security and head to my gate.
Before going through security, I need to empty my water bottles and pour
them in this drain. No liquids are allowed through security.
I just passed through security where they checked my ID and they also scanned my
bag through their x-ray machines. And as you can see, the process was a little bit
quick I felt kind of rushed so I came over here to this area and now I'm going to put
my jacket back on because I had to take this off to get through security and I'm going to
put my shoes on because you're not allowed to walk through security with your shoes.
Now that I've passed through security,
I have to go find my gate and to get to my gate I have to go downstairs using these escalators.
And then I have to take another set of escalators so come along with me! Now I
have to check where my gates at. Where is my gate? So I can check to see my gate and
see it on my boarding pass. My gate is A16 or I can go and look at these big screens that
says departures and look for my destination. So I'm going to Orlando and my Airline is Frontier
and then I see that my gate is A16. It departs at 9:29 p.m. and I can check if my flight is
on time or delayed. But right now it's on time. Now that I know that my gate is A16,
there are two ways to get there. So I can walk there using the moving walkways like these
people are doing right now or the second way is using the train system to get there. To use the
train I will go through the tunnel to get to all gates. There's only two gates gate A and gate B.
The next train is arriving in 30 seconds. The train is now arriving and I'm ready to get on.
Do you think it's cool that there is a train that will lead me to my gate? Let me know down below. I
just got off the train and now I'm at gate A and I have to walk a little bit more to get to my gate.
I have finally reached the A Gates and now I have to go up the escalator one more time.
I'm finally at gate A I still have to walk all the way to get to Gate A16 but all around
me are different types of restaurants and fast food chains like Subway, Vino Volo,
and they have a pizzeria right here. This honestly feels like a mall and I'm glad they have a lot of
different restaurants because people like to eat inside the airport before getting on their plane.
Not only do they have restaurants inside the gate area, they also have a mini market or just
a store and it's called Over-the-Rhibe because Cincinnati in the center of the city there's a
part called Over-the-Rhine and it's famous because it's right in the middle of the city. Right now,
I'm inside this store and they have souvenirs from Cincinnati. They have things like Skyline
Chili which is basically a famous franchise here and they also have our famous sports teams like
the Bengals football team, the FC Cincinnati soccer team, as well as the Red's Baseball
team. Talking about airport vocabulary, it may be hard to enjoy some of your favorite content

then I remembered I have NordVPN. I turned it on and I switched the country to Colombia and
I was able to keep learning Spanish through this series. Additionally, NordVPN keeps your

I'm still heading to my gate and there are two ways to get there.
So I can just go on this moving walkway.
Or I can just walk on the ground like these people are doing right behind me!
Let me know down below what you guys prefer.
Personally, I'm pretty tired so I'm just gonna go walk on the moving walk way. Come along with me!
I finally made it to my gate A16 and I'm 1 hour early. My plane departs at 9:30 p.m. but
that doesn't mean I can get here at 9:30 p.m. Normally boarding time is 30 minutes before
your departing time so a good recommendation don't be late for boarding time make sure to
get here early. Also, I'm getting kind of hungry so I'm going to look for things to eat at this airport.
Normally if you buy food or ice cream at the airport it's a lot more expensive compared to
the regular prices like in my city. There are some restaurants in this gate area, but they didn't
really call my attention so I'm going to have ice cream for dinner. Yes! Ice cream for dinner.
I just got one scoop of cookies and cream ice cream at graters and it costs $6.10. Normally the
price would be around $4 or $5 but of course here at the airport it's a bit more expensive.
Right now I'm just going to take my time, eat my ice cream, and wait for my plane to arrive
and then I'm going to head to my gate once again and then board the airplane and show you guys the
airplane and what's inside. This plane just landed 10 minutes ago. Before boarding the plane I have
to wait for the passengers to exit the airplane. During this time the airplane is refueling and
the workers inspect inside and outside the plane to make sure it's ready to take off again. I just
got my ice cream and I don't even have enough time to eat it because my plane is boarding right
now. So when you board a plane you board by group number you board by your group so my group number
is group eight so I'm the last group I'll be last to board the plane but if you're in business class
or first class you'll be the first group to board the plane and because I'm in economy that's why
I'm the last one. Come along with me! Let's go walk inside and board the plane.
Thanks. As I said before, it's very important to board the plane early and get here early
because it's 9:03 and we're already boarding the plane. I'm walking inside the airplane.
That is a flight attendant. He is walking down the aisle and is checking to see if the carry-on bags
fit inside the overhead bins. To fasten your seat belt, insert the flat metal end into the buckle. To
adjust, pull on the loose strap, and to release on the top of the buckle. Should there
be a loss of cabin pressure, oxygen masks will drop from the overhead compartments throughout
the cabin and inside all laboratories. In the event of a water evacuation, remove the life
vest underneath your seat. When instructed to do so by a crew member, pull the red strap to
open the container remove the pouch and pull the tab to one side to remove the vest. Place
the vest over your head. Wrap the strap around her waist and insert the end into the buckle. Then pull
the strap to tighten it. The flight attendant gave us a safety demonstration where she showed us how
to buckle our seat belts, wear an oxygen mask, and use a life vest. This aircraft safety card gives
you more information on the location of exits and emergency equipment on the airplane. Before
landing, I want to show you what the bathroom looks like on the airplane. It's a bit small and cramped.
The plane just landed and right now I'm sitting in the middle seat. This is the window seat obviously
because it's right next to the window and now I'm going to grab my carry-on bag and exit the plane.
This is a row of seats and now I'm going to take my bag from the overhead bin and exit the plane.
I just arrived in Orlando now I'm ready to go to the baggage claim and look for my checked bag.
Right behind me, there's this huge sign that says terminals and bag claim so in case you get lost
you can find out where to go so you can go to a terminal a different gate. There's three different
Gates A, B, and C and to get to a different terminal or to the bag claim we need to go on the train.
So come along with me! This airport I can't just walk to a terminal I have to take a train. Right
now I'm inside the train, but in Cincinnati I can walk to a different terminal or to the baggage claim.
Right now I'm in the baggage claim and I'm waiting for my checked
bag to arrive. And my first impression of Orlando airport is that it's a lot bigger
compared to the Cincinnati Airport because I had to walk a lot to get to the baggage claim.
Now that I have my suitcase from the baggage claim I'm already finished. I'm at my
final destination and I'm ready to get out of the airport. Right now I'm outside the airport.
This is the arrival section (the arrivals area) where people will wait for someone to pick them
up. Well I don't have anyone to pick me up so I ordered an Uber and now I will wait for the
Uber to arrive. Thank you guys for coming along with me and traveling with me I had such a great
time teaching all of you airport vocabulary. Let me know down below what you guys learned today!
