Lesson Summary

Terminology for customized travel bookings, itinerary management, car rentals, and insurance protections.

Vocabulary

Organiser son voyage

The basic travel vocabulary (la gare, l’aéroport, le billet, la réservation) was introduced in airport, train station & transit terminology. This lesson provides the lexicon for more advanced travel management: modifying bookings, interacting with agencies, renting vehicles, and understanding insurance. The relative pronoun dont, which replaces complements introduced by de, is treated in the relative pronoun dont and is especially useful when describing the features of a trip or service.
