Intermediate English Travel Vocabulary?? - Learn English with Harry Well, summer is definitely here the weather is scorching hot (very hot) and it is time to think about a holiday. How to improve your vocabulary in English might not be on your priority list right now. But here is some intermediate English travel vocabulary, English words and phrases that you can use when talking about your holiday plans.I have prepared a short story for you. This story will help you practise your English reading comprehension. You will find the meaning of the bolded words below. Intermediate English Travel Vocabulary Story My holiday was booked  (organised it) several months ago. These days it is often a good idea to book well in advance  (as early as possible) particularly when looking around (trying to find) the cheapest airline tickets.For those of us lucky enough (fortunate) to live within the EU we get the choice of a number of low cost airlines (very cheap) such as Easyjet and Ryanair.These airlines are always offering low cost options  (choices) to any different destinations and you can pick and choose (decide) from a wide variety of destinations. It really makes planning a holiday so easy.In addition  (also) to that if you are not fussy  (do not mind) which day you leave or on which day you return  (come back) then you can get really cheap deals  (options) mid-week  (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday). This can save quite a bit of money!After you get the flights booked you need some accommodation  (somewhere to eat and sleep) depending on your requirements  (what you want) the options are endless  (there are many options).The traditional accommodation a 3 or 4 star hotel is still everyone’s preference as you get that extra luxury, perhaps a pool or a gym or a nice terraced restaurant. However, if you are looking for a cheap and cheerful  (low cost with simple comforts) option then many of us are now choosing form a wide range of Airbnb options.This mainly (normally) means you will get a room in an apartment or house in the city of your choice.The money you save on your air tickets  (flight costs) can mean you can go a little  upmarket  (more expensive choice) for your hotel or if you get a very good deal (low price) with Airbnb then you could perhaps rent a car and explore the area or eat out  (dine in a restaurant) more frequently than you originally intended. I have gone for the low air ticket and good value Airbnb accommodation so I am able to visit a part of Europe that I have never been to before.These cheaper airlines do have  restrictions  (limits) in relation to yo ur  luggage  (baggage, suitcases) so be prepared to travel light  (do not take much with you). This can be a problem when your other half   (your wife, husband or partner) decides to take everything but the kitchen sink!  (as much as possible!)So pack that bag, make sure to include your sun block  (sun cream) mosquito spray and your E-reader and you are all set  (ready to go). Don’t forget the phrasebook and of course you can probably get on your smart phone so more space available for other things.I am off (leaving) this week so I will catch up with you  (see you again) soon.How did you find it? Please let me know in the comments what other words you found difficult (if any). Thank you.
