Now that international flights<\/strong> (vuelos internacionales<\/em>) are back in full swing, you’re probably as excited as we are to book your flight tickets to visit foreign countries. If you’re studying Spanish (of any variety) and you’re planning a trip to a Spanish-speaking country, this Spanish airport vocabulary guide will definitely come in handy. Not only can you practice Spanish with this guide, it’s also practical; you’ll be able to handle everything you encounter at the airport (el aeropuerto<\/em>)and the plane (el avi\u00f3n<\/em>) like a real native. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We will explore useful airport terminology<\/strong> in this article so that you can use it throughout the whole process of flying abroad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s see the step-by-step:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s always better to purchase your ticket (comprar el boleto<\/em><\/strong>) in advance, especially if you don\u2019t have bags (maletas<\/em><\/strong>) to check in (facturar\/despachar<\/em><\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you arrive at the airport, you\u2019ll need to look for your airline counter (el mostrador de tu l\u00ednea a\u00e9rea<\/em><\/strong>), where you\u2019ll have to present your passport (presentar \/ mostrar el pasaporte<\/em><\/strong>). If you\u2019ve done an online check-in (hacer un registro autom\u00e1tico<\/em><\/strong>), the process will be shorter. Otherwise, they\u2019ll ask you if you have baggage to check in (equipaje para facturar<\/em><\/strong>), and if so they\u2019ll ask you to put it on the scale (b\u00e1scula<\/em><\/strong>). In case you have any carry-on case (bolso\/maleta de mano<\/em><\/strong>) you\u2019ll show it there too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After this process, you\u2019ll receive your boarding pass (tarjeta de embarque<\/strong>), gate number (n\u00famero de puerta<\/em><\/strong>), and seat number (n\u00famero de asiento<\/em><\/strong>), then you\u2019ll move on to the Security checkpoint (control de seguridad<\/em><\/strong>).<\/p>\n\n\n\nEL VUELO paso a paso \/ The flight step by step<\/em><\/strong><\/th> <\/th><\/tr><\/thead> Spanish<\/strong><\/td> English<\/strong><\/td><\/tr> 1- <\/strong>Llegar al aeropuerto<\/strong> En taxi, llegaremos al aeropuerto<\/strong> en media hora.<\/td> To arrive at\/get to the airport<\/strong> By taxi, we\u2019ll get to the airport<\/strong> in half an hour.<\/td><\/tr> 2- <\/strong>Despachar \/ Registrar \/ facturar las maletas<\/strong> Hacer el check-in<\/strong> En el aeropuerto, primero debes despachar las maletas<\/strong>.
