[答疑解惑] 求助：机场英语之 ticket counter & check-in counter

这个C里的check-in counter明显就是上飞机的门前剪票的那个么

标号14附近不是有个counter，有个服务员在那里剪票的,  剪票台都一般都是按在门口的

那大概是另一个gate的counter，哈

应该是上机前的check in，和A的总的check in功能是不一样的。

下面是国外网站上找到的，图中的ticket counter 被称为 check-in desk.
ticket counter 给人的感觉像是航空公司在机场现场卖飞机票的柜台。

2.1 Boarding operations
The main planned phases before the flight for departing
passengers essentially are three:
1) The check-in operations at check-in desks, where the
passenger delivers the baggage and receives the boarding
pass;
2) The transit at the security controls in order to proceed to
the boarding halls with their hand baggage;
3) The boarding operations on the aircraft: the passenger
must be show at the boarding gate of his flight with a
boarding pass and a valid identity document. Generally,
passengers must have completed the check-in operations:
- For domestic flights at least 35 minutes before departure;
- For international flights to Europe at least 45 minutes
before the flight;
- For intercontinental flights at least 60 minutes before the
flight.
Following the check-in the passenger, with boarding passes,
valid identity document and hand luggage (weight and
dimensions allowed by the company), passes through the
expatriation controls and the metal detector where security
operators perform a manual control on the person and on
the hand luggage ascertaining the absence of improper
weapons, real or other dangerous objects.
In recent years, airlines set up alternatives to the check-in
desks thanks to the web check-in and telephone check-in, a
real check-in procedure performed via internet. In these
cases the practice is different from airline company to
airline company, even if in most cases, the only constraint
is required is traveling with only hand luggage only and
therefore do not having baggage to check and also no need
of special assistance. Some airports are also equipped with
automated kiosks for check-in, at which the operation is
carried out entirely by the passenger without staff operators.

学习了，在机场还真没注意到
