Three Things and You're Checked In

Checking in takes exactly three things: one sentence, a passport, a card. The sentence: "Hi, I have a reservation under Wang."under + name means "booked in whose name", and it's the key preposition. Hand over the passport: "Here's my passport." The desk will likely ask for a card too: the deposit is a pre-authorization hold, released automatically at check-out — not an extra charge.

🔊 The front desk asks: checking in? Passport, please
🔊 Your opener: a reservation under Wang
💡Memorize the pattern a reservation under + name. Give the name the booking was made in — matching your passport saves everyone time.
