Wordlist of the month

This month ESOL Examinations have selected a new set of words based on the English Vocabulary Profile. Here is a list of words related to  travel.

A1	station		A2	journey		B1	cruise
A1	ticket		A2	passenger		B1	port
A2	airport		A2	luggage		B1	timetable
A2	platform		B1	cancel		B2	inspector
A2	stop		B1	destination		C1	rank
A2	delay		B1	route		C1	excursion

Next to each word you will see a letter and number (A1, A2, B1, B2 or C1). This means that this word should be familiar to a learner at that CEFR level. For example, in the list above a learner at C1 level should know all these words; a learner at A2 level would probably only know the first nine words on the list.
