不同的机舱等级

记得有一次Lily春节(Spring Fesitival)要在国外度假返家的时候,抵达机场时却被航空公司通知机位超卖(They oversold their tickets.),要让我坐下面一班班机,这时我们今天教的使用句就派上用场了,我问:What’s the next flight after that? 他们告诉我是四个小时之后的航班,但是因为是他们的过错,所以他们会帮我升等我的舱位(upgrade my class),所以那也是我第一次坐商务舱(business class)的经验! 位子的舒适度和乘务员的态度和餐点服务和经济舱(economy class)差好多啊,甚至还有香槟(champagne) 可以喝,所以那次之后我就下了一个决心要好好工作,未来希望每次度假都可以坐头等舱!

I remember one time I was going home from holiday abroad during Spring Festival. As soon as I arrived at the airport, the airline staff told me they oversold the tickets, so I had to fly on the next flight. I asked, “What’s the next flight after that?" They told me it would be the one four hours later. Since it was their fault, they said they would upgrade my class. That was also my first time flying business class! The comfort of the seat, the attitude of the stewardess, and the food service were so much better than in economy class. I could even drink champagne! After that experience I made up my mind to work harder and I hope to fly first class every time.
