Session 11:  'A Trip to Germany'

8/4/2022

​Eine Reise nach Deutschland

Für eine Reise muß man planen. Der Reisepass muß wenigstens sechs Monate gültig sein. Ist ein Visa nötig. Nein für Deutschland nicht. Wie komme ich dahin?  < Mit einem Flugzeug oder einem Schiff?  Die meisten Leute entscheiden sich fürs fliegen. Ein Reisebüro kann uns einen Flugschein (Ticket) besorgen. Verschiedene Fluggesellschaften haben unterschiedliche Preise.Es ist ratsam fü eine Reiseversicherung für die Urlaubszeit zu zahlen. Die Reiseversicherung hilft unerwartete Probleme zu klären.Am Flugplatz (Flughafen) muß man gewöhnlich zwei Stunden vor Abflug sein. Die Abfertigung des Flugscheins, des Gepäcks,  die Zoll und Sicherheitkontrolle braucht Zeit. Es dauert auch eine Weile bis alle Passagiere im Flugzeug sitzen. Beim Abflug zeigt das Bordpersonal wie man sich im Notfall verhalten muß.   Der Flug muß gewöhnlich in Singapore, Bahrain oder Dubai unterbrochen werden, weil wir dann in ein anderes Flugzeug umsteigen müssen, das uns entweder nach Frankfurt, Münschen oder Berlin fliegt.Die Unterbrechung ist gut weil man nach dem langen sitzen mal wieder laufen kann.Manche Leute bleiben für ein paar Tage und fliegen dann weiter.Nach der Ankunft in Deutschland geht man durch eine Passkontrolle und bekommt einen Ankunftstempel in dem Reisepass, dann wird das Handgepäck durchleuchted und dann kann man seinen Koffer bei der Gepäckabgabe abholen. Nun ist man frei die Freunde oder Famlie zu begrüßen oder das bestellte Hotel zu finden um den versäumten Schlaf nach zu holen,  Für die Zeit in Deutschland kann man mit der Bahn, einem Flusschiff, einem Leihwagen oder am schönsten mit Freunden oder Familie reisen.

A Trip  to Germany

​A trip requires planning. The passport must be valid for at least six months. Is a visa required. No not for Germany. How do I get there? < By plane or by ship? Most people choose to fly. A travel agency can get us a ticket. Different airlines have different prices. It is advisable to pay for travel insurance during the holiday period. Travel insurance helps to solve unexpected problems. You usually have to be at the airfield (airport) two hours before departure. The processing of the ticket, baggage, customs and security control takes time. It also takes a while before all the passengers are seated on the plane. On departure, the on-board staff will show you how to behave in an emergency. The flight usually has to be interrupted in Singapore, Bahrain or Dubai because we then have to change to another plane that flies us either to Frankfurt, Munich or Berlin. The interruption is good because after sitting for a long time you can walk again. Some People stay for a few days and then fly on. After arriving in Germany, you go through passport control and get an arrival stamp in your passport, then your hand luggage is x-rayed and then you can pick up your suitcase at the baggage claim. Now you are free to greet friends or family or to find the booked hotel to catch up on the missed sleep. For the time in Germany you can travel by train, river boat, rental car or best of all with friends or family.
