10. 0:24>> Aw, same here, Lucas. I woke up thinking
11. 0:27about trips today. Maybe too much
12. 0:29daydreaming about airports. How about

27. 1:07pass security, find gates, and even ask
28. 1:10about delays.
29. 1:12>> Wow, Mizu, that sounds amazing. I love
30. 1:16traveling and I love speaking English

37. 1:36request, right, Mizu?
38. 1:38>> Oh, yes. Friends, if you're enjoying our

42. 1:49to feel confident at the airport.
43. 1:50Learning together makes it more fun,
44. 1:52right, Lucas?
45. 1:53>> Oh, yes. So, grab your boarding pass,
46. 1:56your notebook, and let's start our
47. 1:58airport adventure.
48. 2:00>> All right, Lucas, travel guide mode on.
49. 2:04>> Yes, Mizu, I'm ready. Let's go check in.
50. 2:09[music]
51. 2:14>> [music]
52. 2:17>> All right, Lucas. Oh, wow. Look around.
53. 2:22This airport is massive. Like a little
54. 2:25city. So many lights. So many people.
55. 2:29[laughter] I feel tiny.
56. 2:32>> Yes, Mizu. It's huge. And everyone's
57. 2:35walking fast, like they're late for
58. 2:37something. It feels a little crazy.
59. 2:40>> Don't worry, Lucas. We're good. We're
60. 2:44calm. We have three whole hours before
61. 2:48our flight. 3 hours. So, we can breathe,
62. 2:53breathe, and take our time.
63. 2:58>> Good. Good. So, first step, we need to
64. 3:01check in, right?
65. 3:03>> Exactly. First thing, check in. We just
66. 3:07need to find the check-in counter for
67. 3:08our airline. We're flying with Global
68. 3:12Airways today,
69. 3:13>> right? Global Airways. So, where do we
70. 3:18look? I don't see a sign.
71. 3:20>> Look up at those big screens right
72. 3:22there. Those are called departure
73. 3:24boards. Departure boards. Departure
74. 3:26boards. They show everything. the
75. 3:29airline, the flight number, the
76. 3:32destination, and the status like open,
77. 3:35delayed, or boarding.
78. 3:38>> Ah, okay. Let me try. What's our flight
79. 3:42number again, Mizu?
80. 3:43>> It's GA312.
81. 3:46GA312
82. 3:48to New York. New York, baby.
83. 3:51>> Ha, New York, baby. Okay, let me find
84. 3:56it. Scanning. scanning.
85. 3:59Yes, I see it. GA 312 to New York. It
86. 4:04says check in at counter 10.
87. 4:07>> Perfect. Counter 10. Airports usually
88. 4:10put the counters in order, so it should
89. 4:12be easy to find.
90. 4:14>> Yeah, I see counter 6, counter 7,
91. 4:17counter 8, counter 9, and oh, there it
92. 4:21is. Counter 10. Right over there next to
93. 4:24the coffee shop.
94. 4:25>> Nice. And look, the line isn't too long.
95. 4:27Lucky us. Come on, Lucas. Let's get in
96. 4:30line.
97. 4:31>> Let's go. And maybe after we check in,
98. 4:34uh, can we get a snack? I already smell
99. 4:38cinnamon rolls. [laughter]
100. 4:40>> Yes, Lutis. Check in first, snack
101. 4:43second.
102. 4:44>> Oh, wow. Mizu, look at this line. It's
103. 4:48like a little snake of people just
104. 4:50slowly moving. Slowly moving.
105. 4:54Does it always get this long? Sometimes.
106. 4:57Yes, Lucas. Especially for big
107. 5:00international flights. Everyone wants to
108. 5:02go somewhere. Good thing we arrived
109. 5:04early. Very early. 3 hours early. I feel
110. 5:08like a responsible adult today.
111. 5:10[laughter]
112. 5:12>> Yes, Mizu. We're so responsible. Okay,
113. 5:16remind me. When we finally reach the
114. 5:18agent, what do we need to show them?
115. 5:20>> Two things. Our passport and our ticket.
116. 5:23Passport and ticket. The airport best
117. 5:25friends. Do you have yours?
118. 5:27>> Uh, wait, wait. Yes, found it. My
119. 5:30passport is in my inside pocket and my
120. 5:32ticket is on my phone. Well, my digital
121. 5:34ticket.
122. 5:35>> Perfect. They'll also ask us about our
123. 5:38luggage. You know, how many bags are you
124. 5:40checking in? Things like that.
125. 5:41>> Right. Right. For this airline, we can
126. 5:44check in one big suitcase each, and we
127. 5:46can take one small bag on the plane.
128. 5:48That small bag is called a carry-on.
129. 5:51Carry-on.
130. 5:52>> Exactly. My carry-on has the important
131. 5:55things. My headphones, a warm sweater,
132. 5:58and snacks. So many snacks. I don't play
133. 6:03games with airplane hunger. [laughter]
134. 6:06>> Classic Mizu. My carry-on is simple. A
135. 6:09book, my charger, and a neck pillow. I'm
136. 6:12a sleepy traveler.
137. 6:13>> Oh, Lucas. You and that neck pillow. You
138. 6:17love that thing.
139. 6:19>> Yes. Yes, I do. It's my travel soulmate.
140. 6:22All right, Lucas. The line is moving.
141. 6:25Slowly but moving. Let's get ready.
142. 6:28Passports, tickets, bags. We got this.
143. 6:33>> Good morning. Next in line, please.
144. 6:36>> Good morning. Hi there.
145. 6:38>> Hello. Good morning.
146. 6:39>> Passports and tickets, please. Of
147. 6:41course. Here you go. My passport and my
148. 6:45e ticket on my phone.
149. 6:47>> And here's mine as well. passport
150. 6:51and my digital ticket.
151. 6:54>> Thank you. Let me check. Are you both
152. 6:57traveling to New York on GA312
153. 7:01today?
154. 7:02>> Yes, that's us. First time flying with
155. 7:05Global Airways, actually. Wonderful. I
156. 7:08hope you enjoy it. Now, how many bags
157. 7:11are you checking in today?
158. 7:12>> I just have this one big suitcase, the
159. 7:16blue one. And I have this slightly
160. 7:19heavier one. No worries. Please place
161. 7:23them on the scale for me. Sure. Here we
162. 7:26go. All right. This one is 19 kilos.
163. 7:31Perfect. And this one is 22.9
164. 7:36kilos.
165. 7:37>> Oh wow.
166. 7:3922.9.
167. 7:41That's like right on the edge, right?
168. 7:44>> Yes sir. The limit is 23 kilos, so
169. 7:47you're safe.
170. 7:49I knew it. I packed maybe too many
171. 7:52sweaters. I thought New York might be
172. 7:54cold.
173. 7:55>> Mizu, you brought three sweaters for a
174. 7:584-day trip. [laughter]
175. 8:00>> I get cold, Lucas. My heart is warm, but
176. 8:04my body is cold. All right. Now, for
177. 8:08your seats, do you have a preference?
178. 8:10Window, aisle? Window seat for me,
179. 8:13please. I love watching the tiny houses
180. 8:17and clouds.
181. 8:18>> And I'll take an aisle seat, please. I
182. 8:21like standing up and stretching my legs.
183. 8:23My legs get dramatic.
184. 8:26>> No problem. I can put you in the same
185. 8:29row. One window, one aisle. Yes, Lucas.
186. 8:34We can still talk. Not loudly, but talk.
187. 8:37>> Perfect. I'll pass you snacks across the
188. 8:39middle seat.
189. 8:40>> All right. Here are your boarding
190. 8:42passes. Your flight is GA312
191. 8:46to New York, departing from gate C22.
192. 8:49Boarding time is 11:05 a.m.
193. 8:53>> Thank you.
194. 8:54>> Great. So, next stop is security.
195. 8:57>> Exactly. Have a wonderful flight.
196. 9:00>> Thank you so much,
197. 9:02>> Lucas. Look, we survived check-in. We
198. 9:06actually did it. Boarding passes in
199. 9:08hand. This is getting real. New York,
200. 9:11here we come.
201. 9:14>> Yes, Mizu, we did it. But don't
202. 9:16celebrate too early. We still have the
203. 9:19boss level of the airport. Security.
204. 9:22Let's follow the signs before we
205. 9:24accidentally walk into the wrong place.
206. 9:26>> Oh, there. That big yellow sign with the
207. 9:28arrow. It says security gates C.
208. 9:32Perfect. Gate C22 is our gate. So, this
209. 9:36is the right direction.
210. 9:38>> Great. Let's go. And remember, security
211. 9:41can be a little intense sometimes.
212. 9:44>> Why? What makes it intense? They look so
213. 9:46serious.
214. 9:48>> Because you have to take things off,
215. 9:49take things out, take things apart. It's
216. 9:52like a midi workout. Jacket off, belt
217. 9:55off, laptop out, liquids out. Everything
218. 9:58goes in those little plastic bins.
219. 10:01>> Oh, right. The bins. The magical airport
220. 10:05bins. Should I take off my shoes, too?
221. 10:08Usually no. Only if they ask. If your
222. 10:11shoes look suspiciously fluffy, maybe.
223. 10:14[laughter]
224. 10:14>> My shoes are cute. Not suspicious.
225. 10:18Okay, let me prepare. Laptop in my
226. 10:22carry-on. Liquids in the small clear
227. 10:25bag. And my snacks stay with me. Nobody
228. 10:29touches the snacks.
229. 10:32[laughter]
230. 10:32>> Absolutely. Snacks stay. I'll put my
231. 10:36tablet and charger in a separate bin
232. 10:38when we get there. They always want
233. 10:40gadgets alone like their VIP guests.
234. 10:43>> All right, Lucas. Security time. The
235. 10:46moment of truth.
236. 10:47>> They really do. Okay, let me start.
237. 10:50Carry-on bag in this bin. Laptop in
238. 10:53another bin. Jacket off. Watch off. And
239. 10:58oh man, why do I have so many coins in
240. 11:00my pocket?
241. 11:02Lucas, are you collecting coins from
242. 11:05every country? I'm putting my tote bag
243. 11:08here, my liquids bag here, and sweater.
244. 11:14>> Wait, what about my water bottle? Can I
245. 11:17take this?
246. 11:18>> Nope. Water is not allowed through
247. 11:20security. You have to drink it or toss
248. 11:23it.
249. 11:24>> No, I literally bought this 10 minutes
250. 11:27ago.
251. 11:29Fine, [sighs]
252. 11:29I'll save it.
253. 11:33Lucas. Oh my goodness.
254. 11:36[panting and gasps]
255. 11:37>> I refuse to waste water. Mizu, I am a
256. 11:42responsible human being.
257. 11:44>> Miss, are these your bins here?
258. 11:47>> Yes, all of them.
259. 11:48>> Please slide them forward onto the belt.
260. 11:51Thank you.
261. 11:51>> Okay, Lucas, you can go first.
262. 11:54>> All right. I am calm. I am peaceful. I
263. 11:59am metalfree. Hopefully.
264. 12:04Oh, come on. Seriously, sir, please step
265. 12:07aside for a moment. Do you have anything
266. 12:09in your pockets? Metal electronics? I
267. 12:13don't think so. Checks pockets. Oh. Oh,
268. 12:18no. My portable charger. I forgot it
269. 12:22again. This keeps happening to me.
270. 12:24Please place it in a bin and go through
271. 12:26again. Yes, of course. So sorry. You're
272. 12:29all clear, sir. You may collect your
273. 12:31items.
274. 12:32>> Okay, my turn.
275. 12:35>> Wow, not even a tiny beep. You're like a
276. 12:37ninja traveler, [laughter]
277. 12:40>> Lucas. I'm not a ninja. I just emptied
278. 12:43my pockets like a normal person. Phew,
279. 12:46that wasn't too bad, right, Lucas? Okay,
280. 12:50now let's grab our stuff.
281. 12:52>> Wow, that was intense. All right, time
282. 12:56to put my belt back on. jacket, too.
283. 13:00Feels like I just ran a mini marathon.
284. 13:03[laughter]
285. 13:04>> Take your time. We've got plenty of
286. 13:06minutes, more than an hour before
287. 13:08boarding. Our gate is C22.
288. 13:12Plenty of time to breathe and relax.
289. 13:15>> So, this area we're in now, what's it
290. 13:18called again?
291. 13:19>> This is the departures lounge.
292. 13:21Departures lounge. The place right after
293. 13:23security where all the gates, shops, and
294. 13:26cafes are basically a tiny airport city.
295. 13:30>> Oh wow. It really is like a small city.
296. 13:34Look, coffee shop, news stand, a
297. 13:38clothing boutique, even a pharmacy. I
298. 13:41could spend a whole day here and not get
299. 13:43bored.
300. 13:45>> I know, right? I'm a little thirsty
301. 13:47after all that bin chaos. Should we grab
302. 13:49a drink? Maybe a smoothie or coffee.
303. 13:52>> Yes, great idea. And maybe a little
304. 13:56snack, too. I'm starting to think
305. 13:58airport security counts as breakfast or
306. 14:01lunch or or both. [laughter]
307. 14:04>> All right, let's go check out that cafe
308. 14:06over there. Looks cozy and the chairs
309. 14:08are nice. Perfect for a little pit stop
310. 14:10before the flight.
311. 14:11>> Yes, I'll race you there. Just kidding.
312. 14:14My legs are still recovering from
313. 14:16security.
314. 14:18Ah, slow and steady wins. Lucas, let's
315. 14:21get comfy and enjoy a drink before the
316. 14:23big adventure begins.
317. 14:25Hi there. Welcome. What can I get for
318. 14:28you today?
319. 14:28>> Hello. I'll have a medium green tea,
320. 14:31please. Just plain, no sugar. Sure. And
321. 14:35for you, sir?
322. 14:38>> I'll take a large mango juice. Oh, and
323. 14:42what sandwiches do you have today? We
324. 14:44have ham and cheese, vegetarian and
325. 14:47turkey.
326. 14:48>> I'll try the ham and cheese sandwich,
327. 14:51please.
328. 14:52>> And I'll have the vegetarian sandwich.
329. 14:55Thank you.
330. 14:56>> Perfect. So that's one medium green tea,
331. 15:01one large mango juice, one ham and
332. 15:04cheese, and one vegetarian sandwich.
333. 15:08That will be $49.
334. 15:10>> $49.
335. 15:12Airport prices strike again.
336. 15:16>> Yes, Lucas. Welcome to the world of
337. 15:18airport snacks. Here's the money.
338. 15:20>> Thank you. Here's your change. Your
339. 15:23sandwiches will be ready in just a few
340. 15:26minutes.
341. 15:27>> Great. Thanks.
342. 15:28>> Ah, finally we can sit and relax a
343. 15:32little. Security and check-in were a bit
344. 15:35of a workout.
345. 15:37>> Yes, and this mango juice smells amazing
346. 15:41already.
347. 15:42So, what should we do next?
348. 15:46>> First, let's walk to our gate so we know
349. 15:48exactly where it is. After that, we can
350. 15:51either sit and wait or look around at
351. 15:53the shops a bit.
352. 15:54>> Good idea. Gate C22, here we come. Wow,
353. 15:59Mizu, look at that shop. It says
354. 16:02dutyfree.
355. 16:04What does that mean anyway?
356. 16:06>> Dutyfree means you don't pay extra taxes
357. 16:09on the things you buy there. So things
358. 16:12like perfume, chocolates, candy,
359. 16:15alcohol, even some electronics are often
360. 16:18cheaper than outside the airport.
361. 16:20>> Oh, that's cool. Can we go in and take a
362. 16:23look?
363. 16:24>> Of course. We don't have to buy
364. 16:26anything. Just looking is fun. It's like
365. 16:28a little treasure hunt.
366. 16:30>> Hello. Welcome. Feel free to browse and
367. 16:33ask if you need any help.
368. 16:35>> Thank you.
369. 16:37>> Wow, it smells amazing in here. Oh,
370. 16:40look. They have chocolate from Belgium.
371. 16:43And I see some fancy candies, too.
372. 16:46>> And look at those mini bottles of
373. 16:48perfume. They even have some travelsiz
374. 16:50ones. Perfect for gifts.
375. 16:54>> Mizu, I think we could spend an hour
376. 16:56here just looking at everything.
377. 16:59>> Yes. And they even have a little
378. 17:01souvenirs from New York. Keychains,
379. 17:04postcards, and cute magnets. We can
380. 17:06remember our trip before we even leave
381. 17:08the airport. Oh, that's smart. Maybe
382. 17:12I'll get a little magnet or two.
383. 17:15>> Yes, Lucas. Small souvenirs are always
384. 17:18fun. Remember, we are just exploring. No
385. 17:21pressure to buy. Just enjoy and practice
386. 17:24English.
387. 17:25>> Okay, let's look around a bit more,
388. 17:28Mizu. But don't let me get distracted by
389. 17:31the chocolate. [laughter]
390. 17:33>> Deal. Let's go slow, Lucas. Step by
391. 17:36step, treasure hunting style. Maybe I'll
392. 17:39pick one, too. But first, we need to
393. 17:41find our gate.
394. 17:43>> Okay, we are in the sea wing now. C1,
395. 17:47C2.
396. 17:49We need to go all the way to C22. Looks
397. 17:52like it's at the far end.
398. 17:54>> Oh, wow. That's a long walk. My feet are
399. 17:57already tired from security.
400. 18:00>> Think of it as a warm up. Good exercise
401. 18:03before sitting on a plane for hours.
402. 18:05>> [gasps]
403. 18:05>> Look, a moving walkway. Let's use it.
404. 18:11>> Lazy traveler detected.
405. 18:13>> Hey, it's fun. Stand on the right if you
406. 18:17just want to relax. People in a hurry
407. 18:20can walk on the left.
408. 18:21>> Ah, that's clever. We're not in a hurry,
409. 18:24so we'll stand on the right like pros.
410. 18:27>> Exactly. Look, we're already at C17.
411. 18:31Almost there.
412. 18:33C22.
413. 18:35There it is. And the screen confirms it.
414. 18:37GA 312 to New York. On time.
415. 18:41>> Perfect. Now, let's find some seats and
416. 18:44get comfortable.
417. 18:45>> How long until boarding?
418. 18:47>> About 45 minutes. We can read, watch the
419. 18:50planes, or just relax.
420. 18:53>> I want to watch the planes. Look at that
421. 18:56one connecting to the bridge. People are
422. 18:58getting off.
423. 18:59That's called disembarking.
424. 19:02>> Disembarking. Got it. And soon we'll be
425. 19:06boarding.
426. 19:07>> Exactly. Are you nervous about the
427. 19:09flight, Lucas?
428. 19:10>> Just a little, but flying is very safe.
429. 19:14I usually listen to music or watch a
430. 19:17movie on my tablet during takeoff.
431. 19:19>> What kind of music?
432. 19:21>> Something calm, relaxing, sometimes
433. 19:24upbeat. Depends on my mood.
434. 19:27>> Good idea. I downloaded a comedy movie
435. 19:30for the flight. Laughing always makes
436. 19:32the time pass faster.
437. 19:34>> Yes. And the flight to New York is how
438. 19:38long?
439. 19:39>> About 9 hours.
440. 19:41>> 9 hours. That's long. What about meals?
441. 19:45>> They serve food and drinks on the plane.
442. 19:48It's included in the ticket, so no
443. 19:50worries.
444. 19:51>> Good. And bathrooms? You can get up and
445. 19:54use them, but only when the seat belt
446. 19:57sign is off.
447. 19:58>> Seat belt sign like in a car. Takeoff,
448. 20:03landing, and turbulence. You keep your
449. 20:06belt on.
450. 20:07>> Turbulence.
451. 20:08>> It's when the plane shakes a little
452. 20:10because of air currents. Totally normal.
453. 20:12>> Wow, Lucas, you know everything.
454. 20:17>> It's more fun to share it with a friend.
455. 20:19Attention passengers of Global Airways
456. 20:22GA312
457. 20:25to New York. We now invite passengers
458. 20:28traveling with children and those
459. 20:30requiring assistance to board first.
460. 20:33>> That's not us, right?
461. 20:35>> Nope. We wait for our group. Let's check
462. 20:38our boarding passes. We're in group
463. 20:41four.
464. 20:42>> So they'll call group one, two, three
465. 20:46Venice. Exactly. Groups help the
466. 20:50boarding process be calm and organized.
467. 20:53>> Makes sense. I'm getting so excited.
468. 20:57>> First class and business class
469. 20:59passengers may now board.
470. 21:01>> Group one, I guess.
471. 21:03>> Yes. Next is group two, then group
472. 21:07three.
473. 21:07>> So, we are soon. Should we line up now?
474. 21:10>> Not yet. Let's wait for group three to
475. 21:12finish.
476. 21:13>> Group four passengers may now board.
477. 21:16>> That's us. Let's go, Mizu.
478. 21:18>> Hello. Boarding pass, please.
479. 21:20>> Here you go.
480. 21:22>> Thank you. Have a pleasant flight. We're
481. 21:25really doing it, Lucas. We're going on
482. 21:28the plane.
483. 21:29>> I know. The adventure is starting. I
484. 21:33can't believe it. New York, here we
485. 21:36come. Wow, Mizu, we finally made it. We
486. 21:40are on the plane from the entrance to
487. 21:43here. That was a long journey. So many
488. 21:46steps.
489. 21:48>> Yes, Lucas. But we did it. And we used a
490. 21:52lot of important English words along the
491. 21:54way. Perfect time to review them and
492. 21:56repeat them so we don't forget.
493. 21:59>> Ah, yes. A vocabulary review. Good idea.
494. 22:03Let's repeat the words carefully.
495. 22:05>> The first word is very, very important.
496. 22:09Boarding pass. Say it with me. Boarding
497. 22:13pass.
498. 22:15Boarding pass. This is the paper or
499. 22:18sometimes on your phone that the
500. 22:20check-in agent gives you at the airport.
501. 22:23>> Yes, you cannot get on the plane without
502. 22:25your boarding pass. It has your flight
503. 22:28information, seat number, and boarding
504. 22:30time.
505. 22:31>> Let's try examples. I have my boarding
506. 22:34pass.
507. 22:36>> Good. Another one. The agent checked my
508. 22:39boarding pass at the gate.
509. 22:41>> Or I lost my boarding pass. Oh no.
510. 22:44Please don't lose your boarding pass.
511. 22:47>> Exactly. Next word. Check-in. Say it.
512. 22:51Check-in.
513. 22:52>> Check-in. That's the first thing we did
514. 22:54at the airport, right?
515. 22:56>> Yes. Check-in can be a noun like the
516. 23:00check-in counter or a verb like we need
517. 23:04to check in.
518. 23:05>> So, at the airport, you go to the
519. 23:08check-in counter to check in for your
520. 23:10flight.
521. 23:10>> Perfect. And what do you give them when
522. 23:13you check in?
523. 23:14>> Your passport, your bags, and then you
524. 23:16get your boarding pass.
525. 23:18>> Excellent. And you can also check in at
526. 23:20a hotel. You go to the front desk and
527. 23:23get your room key.
528. 23:24>> Right. Check-in is to arrive and
529. 23:26register at a place, airport or hotel.
530. 23:29>> Viewers, try this. I will at the airport
531. 23:34at 9:00 a.m. What's the word?
532. 23:37>> Yes, the answer is check in. Very good.
533. 23:40>> Next word. A little tricky for some.
534. 23:43Security. Say it. Security.
535. 23:46>> Security. That's where we went after
536. 23:49check-in. They make sure everyone is
537. 23:51safe.
538. 23:52>> Yes. They check your bags. You walk
539. 23:54through a metal detector and sometimes
540. 23:57put things in bins.
541. 23:59>> So, we say we have to go through
542. 24:01security.
543. 24:02>> Or the security line is long so we need
544. 24:05extra time.
545. 24:06>> And the people there are security
546. 24:08officers. Right. Also, secure can
547. 24:11describe how you feel. Safe and secure.
548. 24:14>> Yes. But at the airport, security is
549. 24:17definitely the place.
550. 24:18>> Next word. Departures board. Repeat.
551. 24:22Departures board.
552. 24:23>> Departures board. The big screen that
553. 24:26shows all flights, times, destinations,
554. 24:29and status. Is it on time? Delayed?
555. 24:33>> The opposite is the arrivals board for
556. 24:35flights coming in.
557. 24:36>> Exactly. We looked at the departures
558. 24:39board to find our check-in counter.
559. 24:41>> Sentence example. Let's check the
560. 24:45departures board to see if our flight is
561. 24:48on time.
562. 24:50>> Perfect. Next word. Gate. Repeat. Gate.
563. 24:55>> Gate. The door to the airplane. It has a
564. 25:00number like C22.
565. 25:02>> After security, you go to your gate to
566. 25:05wait for your flight. Example sentences.
567. 25:08Our flight leaves from gate C22.
568. 25:12Or boarding announcements are at the
569. 25:14gate.
570. 25:15>> Simple but important. If you don't know
571. 25:18your gate, you can't get on the plane.
572. 25:21>> Next favorite. Dutyfree. Repeat.
573. 25:25Dutyfree.
574. 25:27>> Dutyree.
575. 25:28The shop where you don't pay extra tax.
576. 25:32often cheaper for things like chocolate,
577. 25:35perfume, alcohol, and cosmetics.
578. 25:39>> Sentence.
579. 25:40I bought some chocolate at the duty-free
580. 25:43shop for my friend.
581. 25:45>> Last word. Carry on. Repeat. Carry on.
582. 25:50>> Carry on. The small bag you take with
583. 25:53you on the plane. Not your big suitcase.
584. 25:56That's checked luggage or checked bag.
585. 26:00My carry-on is under the seat.
586. 26:03>> Mine has my passport, wallet, book,
587. 26:07headphones, charger, and a few extra
588. 26:10socks. Always prepared.
589. 26:13[laughter]
590. 26:13>> Mizu, so funny. You don't need all those
591. 26:16socks.
592. 26:17>> But I like to be ready.
593. 26:19>> Okay, let's review. Repeat after me.
594. 26:22Boarding pass,
595. 26:24check-in,
596. 26:26security,
597. 26:29departures board,
598. 26:31gate,
599. 26:33dutyfree,
600. 26:35carry on.
601. 26:37>> Seven very important words for the
602. 26:39airport. Say them again with me.
603. 26:42Boarding pass, check-in, security,
604. 26:47departures board, gate, dutyfree,
605. 26:51carryon.
606. 26:52>> Viewers, try this. Make one sentence
607. 26:55using two of these words. Example, after
608. 26:59I checked in, I went to the gate.
609. 27:01>> Or, I showed my boarding pass at
610. 27:04security.
611. 27:05>> Write your sentence in the comments.
612. 27:07Practicing sentences helps you remember
613. 27:10words faster.
614. 27:12Lucas, I feel like you will never forget
615. 27:14security now.
616. 27:16>> Yes, and the other words, too. Well,
617. 27:18Mizu, we did it. We are on the plane and
618. 27:22New York is the next stop.
619. 27:24>> I know. From the entrance to this seat,
620. 27:27we practiced so much English. What an
621. 27:29adventure.
622. 27:30>> Yes. And now we're ready for takeoff.
623. 27:34>> Okay, friends, let's do a quick review.
624. 27:37First, we found the big departures board
625. 27:40and looked for our flight. We learned
626. 27:42that you always check your airline and
627. 27:45your flight number,
628. 27:47>> right? Then we went to the check-in
629. 27:48counter. We talked to the agent, gave
630. 27:50her our passports, and checked in our
631. 27:52bags.
632. 27:53>> And remember the very important question
633. 27:56the agent asked us, window seat or aisle
634. 27:59seat? Which one do you like better? Let
635. 28:01us know in the comments. Are you team
636. 28:04window seat or team aisle seat? I'm
637. 28:07definitely team window. After that, we
638. 28:09went through security. That was an
639. 28:11adventure for me.
640. 28:12>> Yes, Lucas forgot to take out his coins
641. 28:15and his phone.
642. 28:16>> Don't remind me, but it's a good lesson.
643. 28:19Always empty your pockets at security.
644. 28:21It makes everything so much faster.
645. 28:24>> Absolutely. Then after security, we
646. 28:27entered the departures lounge, bought
647. 28:29some drinks and snacks, and explored the
648. 28:32duty-free shop. and we learned that
649. 28:34duty-free means no tax. Then we found
650. 28:37our gate C22 by following the signs.
651. 28:40>> We waited at the gate, listened
652. 28:42carefully for boarding announcements,
653. 28:44and finally showed our boarding passes
654. 28:47to walk onto the plane.
655. 28:49>> It's a lot of steps, but when you know
656. 28:51what to do and what to say, the airport
657. 28:53isn't scary at all. It's exciting.
658. 28:55>> Exactly. And the most important thing is
659. 28:58that you learned words like boarding
660. 29:00pass, check-in, security, departures,
661. 29:03board, gate, dutyfree, and carry-on. You
662. 29:08can use these words at any airport in
663. 29:10the world.
664. 29:11>> We practiced listening, we practiced
665. 29:13speaking, and we learned new vocabulary.
666. 29:16That's a big win for English learning
667. 29:17today.
668. 29:18>> I agree. And now comes my favorite part,
669. 29:23>> the question of the day. Okay, friends,
670. 29:25get ready. Today's question has two
671. 29:28parts, so you can choose which one to
672. 29:30answer.
673. 29:31>> The first part is about the past. What's
674. 29:34the most interesting or funniest thing
675. 29:36that has ever happened to you at an
676. 29:38airport? Maybe you got lost, saw a
677. 29:41famous person, or had a funny experience
678. 29:43at security like me.
679. 29:45>> And the second part is about the future.
680. 29:48If you could fly anywhere in the world
681. 29:50tomorrow, where would you go?
682. 29:53>> Anywhere. Paris, Tokyo, a tropical
683. 29:56beach. Imagine it. Please, please tell
684. 29:59us your story or your dream destination
685. 30:02in the comments. We read every single

707. 30:53should we practice English next on a
708. 30:56train or at a supermarket?
709. 30:58>> Ooh, I like train. I love seeing new
710. 31:02places. But let's see what our viewers
711. 31:04want. Write your ideas in the comments,
