This lesson covers the 20 phrases that carry you from landing to hotel check-in on your first day in a Spanish-speaking country — the airport, a taxi, and the hotel desk. It also shows the two reusable patterns behind them: ¿Dónde está…? (where is…?) for finding any place, and ¿Me puede…? (can you…?) for any polite request, plus what an airport announcement actually sounds like and the two words to listen for.
