A typical flight

The taxi drops you off outside the _1_ building. You enter and find the _2_ desk. You hand in your luggage and get a _3_ pass. You may choose a window seat or an _4_ seat – if you prefer more leg room. Then you go to the passport control and _5_ check. You will be asked to take off your belt and shoes and put your keys and laptop in a _6_ and go through a scanner.

Now, you are in the departure _7_. You can just relax or walk around and do some shopping. You should keep checking the information screens to see the status of your _8_. When it says ´Boarding at gate …´, you can go to the gate and _9_ (get onto the plane). Find your seat and put your hand luggage in the overhead _10_. Before you take off, the flight _11_ (cabin crew) will give a safety demonstration and ask you to _12_ your seat belt. You can enjoy your flight now.

When you land, you get off the plane, go through the passport control and follow the signs for the Baggage _13_. Collect your bags from the carousel and walk through the _14_. If there is someone to meet you they will be waiting in the _15_ hall.
