In this Business English Podcast lesson we’re going to look at useful language for handling the practical details of a business visit, such as airport pickup 1 and restaurant or hotel booking. And we’ll also practice ways to create and maintain goodwill 2 by demonstrating flexibility 3 and responding politely on the phone.


Viva is an Italian fashion company. Viva representatives Marco and Francesca are preparing to attend a fashion expo in Las Vegas with their American distributor, Foxtrot. A fashion expo, or exposition, is a kind of trade show or conference in which potential buyers look at manufacturers’ goods.
