Hello everyone and welcome to EnglishPod.
My name is Marco.
And my name is Katherine and today we have a great lesson for you about traveling.
That's right, you know, we have taken a look at previous lessons where you can buy a ticket,
how to book a flight, what to do at the airport.
But now we are going to see what we can do if our flight gets canceled.
Okay, this is not a fun situation, but hopefully with our help,
you'll be able to understand what these messages are about flights that are canceled or delayed.
So let's take a listen to today's dialogue.
Good afternoon, sir.
May I please see your passport and reservation?
Here you go.
Oh, I'm sorry, sir.
This flight has been cancelled due to some mechanical problems.
Canceled?
What am I supposed to do now?
We apologize for any inconveniences that may be caused by this.
If your flight is urgent, I could put you on a waiting list for another flight this evening,
but it's on a first come first serve basis,
so there's no guarantee you'll be able to take that flight.
