Si parte! Il nostro viaggio inizia spesso da un’aeroporto, dove dobbiamo districarci tra documenti, biglietti e bagagli. Spesso ci può anche capitare di dover fare uno scalo in un paese straniero. Qui trovate alcune semplici conversazioni in lingua inglese per interagire con il personale assistente all’aeroporto (al banco del check – in, al controllo della sicurezza, all’imbarco) e a bordo dell’aereo. Fasten your seat belts!
