The Situation

At 成都双流国际机场 (Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport | Chéngdū Shuāngliú Guójì Jīchǎng), travelers check 航班动态 (flight status | hángbān dòngtài) on large screens. A few are at the service desk for 机票更改 (ticket changes | jīpiào gēnggǎi) and 机票退改 (ticket refunds and changes | jīpiào tuìgǎi). Many discuss the benefits of 航空里程 (air miles | hángkōng lǐchéng) and their membership in various 航空联盟 (airline alliances | hángkōng liánméng). Some business travelers head for 公务舱 (business class | gōngwù cāng) and 头等舱 (first class | tóuděng cāng), where they enjoy 登机优先 (priority boarding | dēngjī yōuxiān) privileges.

In the terminal, the 机场快线 (airport express | jīchǎng kuàixiàn) helps passengers get to their gates quickly. The 机场休息室 (airport lounge | jīchǎng xiūxíshì) provides a quiet escape for those seeking rest. Meanwhile, the importance of 航空安全 (aviation safety | hángkōng ānquán) and 机舱压力 (cabin pressure | jīcāng yālì) is announced over the PA system, reminding everyone of 航空安检 (aviation safety checks | hángkōng ānjiǎn) procedures.

As they go through the 登机流程 (boarding process | dēngjī liúchéng), Some passengers read about 国际航班准则 (international flight regulations | guójì hángbān zhǔnzé) and 航空协议 (aviation agreements | hángkōng xiéyì). The promise of 空中援助 (air assistance | kōngzhōng yuánzhù) provides comfort, especially for those facing potential 航班延迟保障 (flight delay assurances | hángbān yánchí bǎozhàng).
