5 Travel Phrasal Verbs

Hello everyone and welcome back to English with Lucy.

The other day on my Instagram, I asked what sort of video would you like to see next?

I asked on this photo here and by far the most popular comment was tell us about your trip to Barcelona. Unfortunately i didn’t film much or take so many photos. So, i can’t do that. The second most popular was phrasal verbs. And the third most popular was travel vocabulary. So, thought I would take travel and phrasal verbs fuse them together and talk to you about travel-related phrasal verbs.

So, let’s get started. now, obviously you know the ones like take off and get away and things like that. Today, I want to talk to you about some more advanced travel-related phrasal verbs. So, the first one is to set off. To set off. To set off means to start or begin a trip or a journey. So, i could say when I went to Barcelona, i set off at six o’clock in the morning.

And i arrived at the airport at eight o’clock. So, i began the whole journey at six o’clock in the morning. Now the next one is to hold up and this means to delay something. So, i could say there was a traffic jam, which held us up for half an hour. the next one is to see somebody off. Or just to see off. And this means to go to a station or airport or specific place to say goodbye to somebody that is traveling somewhere. So, i could say my dad came into departures to see me off my dad, came into departures to say goodbye to me before I traveled.

The next one is to check in and this means to arrive and register at a hotel or an airport.

So at the airport I had to check in my luggage at the desk and that the hotel i also had to check in and receive my keys. Remember at the end of the trip i would also check out.

The final one is to stop over and this means to stop somewhere on the way to your final destination. So, if you were going on a long journey to Indonesia, for example, maybe you would stop over in another country in another airport on the way. And then make a connecting flight to break up the journey. So, my final destination is Indonesia, but, i might stop over in Italy.

Ok guys those were your five travel-related phrasal verbs. I hope you enjoyed the video. I hope you learned something.
