Day 2-2: Departure Airport London – Security + Document Check + Boarding

Can you clear Heathrow security, pass the gate document check, and board your flight to New York without confusion?
How it works

Read, listen, or speak your way through a realistic Heathrow departure sequence. Choose the reply you would actually say at security, the gate document check, and boarding.

Some answers are calm, clear, and natural. Other answers are too vague, too rushed, or misunderstand phrases like “hand luggage”, “liquids bag”, “tray”, “gate document check”, “travel authorisation”, “boarding group”, “queue”, and “overhead locker”.

You can recover by using repair language such as: “Sorry, I misunderstood”, “Thanks for clarifying”, “Just to confirm…”, “I’ll take that out now”, “Here is my physical passport”, and “I’ll wait until my boarding group is called.” At the end, review your result and submit it to your teacher/tutor.
