Mom, I’m looking at the flights from Manila to Bohol for our trip on March 30th. There are so many options! Should we take the early morning flight or the afternoon one? I see Philippine Airlines and Cebu Pacific both have several departures.
妈，我正在看 3 月 30 日去薄荷岛的机票。选项太多了！我们要坐一早的航班还是下午的？我发现菲航和宿务太平洋都有好几趟航班。
Mom
Definitely the morning one, Aiden. We want to maximize our time in Panglao. But remember, we are a big group this time—there’s the three of us, plus your Uncle and Grand-aunt/ɡrænd ænt/姨奶. We need to make sure the timing isn't too tiring for the adults.
肯定坐早上的，Aiden。我们想多待会儿。但记住，我们人多——我们三个，加上你叔叔和“姨奶”。我们要确保时间不会让长辈太累。

Good point. The 8:00 AM flight seems perfect. It gets us to Tagbilaran by 9:30 AM. But I’m worried about the baggage allowance/ˈbæɡɪdʒ əˈlaʊəns/行李额度. The "Basic" fare only includes a 7kg carry-on/ˈkæri ɒn/随身行李, and we’ll have lots of beach gear and swimming clothes.
有道理。早上 8 点的航班完美，9 点半到塔比拉兰。但我担心“行李额度”。基础票价只包含 7 公斤“随身行李”，我们要带很多海滩装备和泳衣。
Mom
That won't be enough. Your Grand-aunt is healthy and strong, but she still has many things to pack for a four-day trip. She will definitely need a checked bag/tʃekt bæɡ/托运行李. We should probably add at least 20kg for each adult to be safe. Can you check the round-trip/ˌraʊnd ˈtrɪp/往返 total for all five of us?
那肯定不够。你姨奶身体虽好，但四天旅行要带的东西也多。她肯定需要“托运行李”。我们要给每个大人加 20 公斤。你能查下我们五个人的“往返”总价吗？
Aiden
[typing on laptop] Okay... If I add the pre-booked/ˌpriː ˈbʊkt/预订好的 baggage now, it's much cheaper than paying at the airport counter. We really should avoid those excess baggage/ɪkˈses ˈæɡɪdʒ/超重行李 fees.
[打字] 好的……如果我现在“预订”行李，比在机场便宜。我们真得避免那些“超重行李”费。
Aiden
Oh, wait! I also need to double-check the terminal/ˈtɜːmɪnl/航站楼—is it NAIA Terminal 2 or 3? Some domestic flights have moved recently, and you know how bad the traffic is between terminals in Manila.
噢，等等！我还得核对下“航站楼”——是 2 号还是 3 号？最近有些国内航班搬迁了，你知道马尼拉机场航站楼之间的交通有多烂。
Mom
Good catch, Aiden! Checking the terminal is crucial. Once you've confirmed all the luggage and seat details, show me the final price before you click 'book'. Bohol, here we come!
细心的发现，Aiden！核对航站楼至关重要。确认好行李和座位细节后，下单前给我看最终价格。薄荷岛，我们来了！
