A: Airline staff H: Haley
Haley is at the airport check-in counter.
A: Where are you flying to today?
H: Los Angeles.
A: Are you checking in any luggage?
H: Yes, just one bag.
A: Could you please place your luggage on the scale?
H: Sure.
A: It looks like your luggage is five kilograms over the weight limit.
H: Oh, no! What should I do?
A: You have a few options. If you’re traveling with someone, you can shift some items to their luggage. Or, if someone dropped you off, you could call them to take some items back.
H: I’m flying alone, and my parents already left.
A: In that case, you could move some small, heavier items into your hand luggage. Just make sure your carry-on doesn’t exceed the size or weight limit.
H: That could work. I think my backpack is light enough to handle a few extra things.
A: Just so you know, if your luggage is still overweight after that, you’ll need to pay an extra fee or leave some items behind.
H: I understand. I’ll try moving some items to my carry-on. Thank you for your advice.

例 Don’t forget to keep your luggage receipt in case you need to claim your bag.
別忘了保留行李存聯,以備需要領取行李時使用。

航空人員: 請問您今天要飛往哪裡呢?
海 莉: 洛杉磯。
航空人員: 您有託運行李嗎?
海 莉: 有,只有一件。
航空人員: 能請您將行李放到磅秤上嗎?
海 莉: 當然。
航空人員: 您的行李似乎超過限重五公斤。
海 莉: 喔,不!我該怎麼做?
航空人員: 您有幾個選項。如果您有旅伴,可以將一些物品移到他們的行李中。或者,如果有人載您過來,您可以打電話給他們,請他們帶一些東西回去。
海 莉: 我獨自旅行,而且我父母已經離開了。
航空人員: 那樣的話,您可以將一些體積小、較重的物品放進手提行李。只要確保您的手提行李不超過尺寸或重量限制即可。
