Potovalni bonton

Vožnja z avtobusom (kot običajno)

Pred odhodom preveri ali imaš s seboj dokumente, podpisan obrazec za potovanje, denarnico.

Protokol na letališču

Po prihodu na letališče je tvoja najpomembnejša skrb držanje skupaj s skupino ter skrb za osebno prtljago.

Preden prtljago oddamo, ponovno preveri ali je podpisana in si zapomni, kako izgleda.

- Prijava na let/check-in:

- V vrsti čakaš do uslužbenca, ko prideš na vrsto oddaš osebni dokument, boarding pass in oddaš prtljago.

- Na vozovnico dobiš nalepko, ki je potrdilo o oddani prtljagi. Te nalepke ne smeš izgubiti in naj ostane

prilepljena na vozovnico!

- Ročno prtljago obdržiš pri sebi in si nanjo ves čas pozoren. Pazi na njeno vsebino!

- Varnostni pregled:

- pred pregledom pripravi osebni dokument in vozovnico

- odstrani vse kovinske dele in jih položi v namenski zabojček – pasovi, denar, ključi, večji kovinski nakit,

ure …, da se rentgensko pregledajo;

- število elektronskih in električnih naprav omeji na minimum, imej v mislih, da je za pregled teh naprav

potreben daljši čas;

Ko opravimo varnostni pregled počakaj z ostalimi, da pridejo vsi čez kontrolo.

- Čakanje na let: Na let bomo čakali na dogovorjenem mestu, ki ga ne zapuščaj brez obvestila vodji skupine.

Za obhode po trgovinah se predhodno dogovori z učiteljem.

- Vkrcanje na letalo:

- V koloni mirno počakaš na vkrcanje na letalo. Vozovnico imej ves čas pri sebi in si zapomni številko

sedeža na letalu. Črka pomeni mesto sedeža (npr. A – pri oknu) številka pa vrsto (npr. 12).

- Ko najdeš svoj sedež, najprej pospravi svoj kos ročne prtljage v prtljažnik nad sedeži.

- Prijazno pozdravi potnika na sosednem sedežu prijazno.


Vožnja z letalom

- Oglej si navodila za varnost na naslednji strani

- Med letom (ko ugasnejo lučke"Fasten Seat Belt") imate lahko prižgane naslednje elektronske naprave, ki

ne presegajo teže 1 kg in so vključene na način FLIGHT MODE:

Tablične računalnike

Pametne telefone

Ipode

E-bralnike

MP3/DVD-predvajalnike

POMNI! Zaradi varnosti MORAJO biti te naprave v fazi vzletanja in pristajanja popolnoma izključene.

Protokol na letališču po pristanku letala

- Sledi navodilom osebja

- Varnostni pas lahko odpneš šele ko ugasne lučka "Fasten Seat Belt".

- Nikamor naj se ti ne mudi. Nekateri potniki so vezani na nadaljnje potovanje. Mi bomo še lep čas čakali na

prtljago, zato se ne prerivaj proti izhodu.

- Po izhodu iz letala zopet počakaj na ostalo skupino.

- Dvig prtljage:

- Sledi navodilom učiteljev; na ekranu s prikazom urnika letov bomo najprej poiskali mesto, kjer bomo

dvignili našo prtljago.

- Ko opaziš svoj kos prtljage, jo prevzemi z dvigom s tekočega traku.

- It is one of the four Grand Slam tennis tournaments (Majors), the others being

the Australian Open, the French Open and the US Open.

- Wimbledon is the only Major still played on grass, the game's original surface,

which gave the game its original name of "lawn tennis".

- The tournament takes place over two weeks in late June and early July.

- Wimbledon traditions include a strict dress code for competitors, the eating of

strawberries and cream by the spectators, and Royal patronage.

- The tournament is also notable for the absence of sponsor advertising around the

courts.

- In 2009, Wimbledon's Centre Court was fitted with a roof to prevent the loss of

playing time due to rain.
