How was your trip? 一路上好吗?

Would you like to have a rest after your flight? 你刚下飞机需要休息一下吗?
客人通常会客气地回复:
Everything was fine. 一切都很顺利。
It was great. 挺好的。
Not bad. 还不错。
或者表达需求:
Long-distance flight makes me so tired! Please take me to the hotel now.
长途飞行让我感觉很累。现在就带我去酒店吧!
I’d like to get something to eat first.

我想先吃点东西。这附近有餐厅吗?
关于时差的描述,[Native English],
专门的单词jet lag, jet-lag.
I‘m really tired because of the jet lag. 由于时差没倒过来,我感觉好困。
Sara: Don’t worry. You will be in Shanghai tomorrow. Everything will be OK then. I’d like to re-confirm your flight and arrange the pike-up. You will be arriving on flight KA5366 by Dragonair, at a quarter past ten a.m. , right?
Anna: Absolutely!
Sara: So, we will pick you up in Shanghai Pudong airport tomorrow morning. Please relax and have a good sleep! See you tomorrow !
Sara: Thanks. You, too !
① pike-up,接机。
I need to pick someone up at the airport in 2 hours’ time.
2小时后我要去接机。
We’re going to pick someone up at Meilan Airport. 我们要去美兰机场接机。
pick up的用法很多,和接机一样,打车的时候让司机到哪里接你,就可以用这个短语来表达。或者是自驾游时,“提车”也是用pick up来表达的。
如何用英文准确描述航班号?
常用的说法顺序是:航班号-航空公司-起降城市-起降时间
比如:I will take the LF796 by Lufthansa from Frankfurt and arrive in Hong Kong at 4:10 p.m.
通常,在提供航班号和起降时间的同时,必须一并告知航空公司名。尤其在一些大城市的国际机场,有很多航站楼,不同的航空公司被安排在不同的航站楼。完整提供信息,才能避免接机失误。
其它常用的基础表达:
Which international flight are you taking?
你乘坐哪趟国际航班?
The departure time for this flight is in the morning.
这个航班的起飞时间是在早上。
Please tell me your arrival time.
请告诉我你的到达时间。
Will Flight HU786 arrive on-time?
请问HU786会准时到达吗?
Flight HU786 has been delayed.
HU786航班延误了。
Flight HU786 has been cancelled due to thunderstorm.
由于雷暴天气,航班已经取消。

Sara: Excuse me. Are you Miss Anna from the Germany?
Anna: Oh, yes. I'm Anna. You must be Miss Sara from the On-show Company?
Sara: Yes I am.
Anna: It's very nice of you to meet me.
此处常用的有:
I've been expecting you.
I've been looking forward to seeing you.
We are very happy to have you here./ I hope you can enjoy your stay here.
