Today's Lesson
AIRPORT LOUNGE   空港のラウンジ

  • An airport lounge is a private area inside an airport, where - depending on the airline that provides the lounge - frequent flyers, first-class passengers, and other selected passengers and crew can wait for their flight more comfortably than in the ordinary waiting area.
  • airport lounge は、空港の中にある、航空会社が提供するプライベートなラウンジのことです。飛行機を頻繁に利用する人や、ファーストクラス、その他の選ばれた乗客や乗務員たちが、通常の待合所よりも快適に、フライトまでの時間を過ごすことができる場所です。
