In this article, I have prepared a podcast for you, taking place at an airport. You will have the opportunity to learn helpful vocabulary in French on how to check in at an airport!

Further vocabulary practice
In order to review together the main vocabulary of this podcast, I have prepared a table with an audio so you can practice the pronunciation.
Take the time to listen to each word, repeat them and write them down (without doing a copy and paste). Once you are comfortable with these steps, make you own sentence with each word. The sentences do not have to be complex, just a little sentence.
I invite you to reading my article “How to easily memorize French vocabulary” in order to understand the reason behind it!
