Upper Intermediate
Budget airlines have started to gain popularity in Asia in recent years which means that there are more and more differences in what kind of treatment you should expect while flying. This lesson will teach you some useful vocabulary you can use when talking to travel agents to ensure you don't find yourself strapped to the bottom of the wing for 14 hours without anything to eat.
