0 An airport has checks that keep flights safe: security, where liquids go in a small clear bag and you follow the officers, and passport control, where you show your passport to travel abroad. 1 On the plane the crew are in charge of everyone's safety, so you watch the safety demonstration, follow their instructions and keep your seat belt fastened whenever you sit, because sudden bumps called turbulence can happen. 2 If the oxygen masks fall, you put your own on first and then help others, because you cannot help anyone if you cannot breathe. 3 A boy flying alone from Dallas to Denver stays with the airline staff member who looks after him from the gate until his grandma meets him. 4 At airport security, only small bottles of liquid are allowed, they go in a small clear bag, and you follow the officers' instructions, because security checks keep flights safe. 5 Your passport is kept safe and with an adult, because you cannot travel abroad without it. 6 At the gate you listen for announcements and check the board, because gates and times can change. 7 You watch the safety demonstration even if you have seen it before, because each plane can be different. 8 Your seat belt stays fastened whenever you are seated on a plane, because sudden bumps called turbulence can happen. 9 Swallowing, yawning or chewing helps sore ears during landing, because it helps the pressure in your ears even out. 10 You keep your feet still and do not kick the seat in front, because it disturbs the person sitting there. 12 On a long flight you drink water, stretch and walk in the aisle when allowed. 13 During take-off you follow the crew's instructions about electronic devices. 14 A child flying alone, an unaccompanied minor, stays with the airline staff member who looks after them. 15 On a flight to Florida the plane hit sudden bumpy air; a boy who had unbuckled was thrown up against the ceiling and cut his head, while his sister, belted in, was only shaken. 16 A man at an airport in Dublin joked that his bag had a bomb in it; the flight was stopped, he was arrested and his whole family missed their holiday. 17 Sudden bumpy air, called turbulence, can happen with no warning, and most people hurt by it were not wearing their seat belt. 18 Jokes about bombs or weapons at an airport are treated as real threats, and people can be arrested for them. ← previous Trains, the Underground and subwaysnext → Bikes, scooters and car parks↑ back to Everyday This page in Markdown → https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/school/everyday/271-airports-and-planes/
