地道美語聽力播客906：以后再也不坐廉價(jià)航空了

Anton: It’s amazing that we were able to get these airline tickets so cheaply.

　　安東：太棒了，能買到這么便宜的飛機(jī)票。

　　Federica: It’s great, isn’t it? We can fly to Lawrence City for a fun weekend. Let’s check in using this kiosk.

　　佩萊格里尼：太好了，不是嗎?我們能飛去勞倫斯度過一個愉快周末了。我們用自助服務(wù)辦理登記手續(xù)吧。

　　Anton: Hmm, this is asking me to pay $50 to bring a piece of luggage aboard. I didn’t know there were such strict baggage restrictions.

　　安東：嗯?它要我支付50美元的行李費(fèi)，我不知道這兒的行李限制地這么嚴(yán)格。

　　Federica: I didn’t realize it either.

　　佩萊格里尼：我也不知道。

　　Anton: And we have to pay another fee to reserve a seat. I didn’t know that the default was open seating.

　　安東： 定個座位，還得付額外的費(fèi)用。我不知道它是默認(rèn)的開放席位，先上先坐。

　　Federica: Me, neither.

　　佩萊格里尼：我也不知道。

　　Anton: Did you know that we’re not flying directly to Lawrence City, but making two stops on the way?

　　安東：你知不知道我們不是直飛勞倫斯，要經(jīng)過兩次中轉(zhuǎn)?

　　Federica: Oh, no!

　　佩萊格里尼：哦，不要啊!

　　Anton: And there are other hidden fees for what they consider add- ons, things we would normally get for free on other airlines, like a soda, snack, blanket, and in-flight entertainment?

　　安東：這兒還有沒有其他的隱形消費(fèi)，比如他們所謂的附加消費(fèi)，比如其他航線都免費(fèi)的東西，像蘇打，零食，墊子和機(jī)內(nèi)娛樂?

　　Federica: No, that’s news to me.

　　佩萊格里尼：沒有，跟聽新聞似的。

　　Anton: Here’s the kicker. We’re not flying into Lawrence City Airport but to a remote airport 60 miles away. We’ll pay a lot for ground transportation to our hotel. Should we get a refund and forget about the trip?

　　安東：接下來這才是重點(diǎn)。我們前往的不是勞倫斯機(jī)場，而是60英里外的某個遙遠(yuǎn)的機(jī)場。我們?nèi)ヂ灭^就要花很多錢呢。要不我們退款，不去旅行了?

　　Federica: Sorry, one thing I do know is that there are no refunds or changes allowed.

　　佩萊格里尼：抱歉，我知道的就是不能退款，也不能換機(jī)。

　　Anton: I should have known flying on a budget airline would be like this. It doesn’t seem like such a good deal now, does it?

　　安東：我早該知道廉價(jià)航空公司就會是這樣的。這樣挺不劃算的，不是嗎?

　　Federica: No, this airline has turned nickel-and- diming into an art form!

　　佩萊格里尼：嗯，這條航線一點(diǎn)一點(diǎn)的克扣我們的錢，做得越來越熟練了。
