"The field of tourism and hospitality management is an adventurous journey for most students. More opportunities await them to explore and discover which destination they are going to pursue. Will they be navigating as seafarers on a passenger cruise ship? flying across one continent to another as a cabin crew member for a prestigious airline company? dealing and entertaining guests in a luxurious hotel? managing a first-class restaurant? or handling prestigious local and international events? Wherever they go, they will face challenges along the way. These challenges enable them to learn how to handle difficult situations and will help them become competent individuals.

At first, a tourism and hospitality management career is traveling to one's destination, which would keep an individual silent. Upon joining this kind of voyage, a person is silent because he/she is trying to adapt to the culture of the people that he/she is dealing with. Once a person gets comfortable with the working environment, he/she can interactively participate with people from all walks of life by sharing the culture and traditions of his/her place of origin. Upon returning to his/her hometown, the person can narrate the memorable encounters he/she has had.

This textbook is the sequel to Foreign Language 1: French for Hospitality Management and Tourism 1. While the first textbook is focused on hoteliers and gastronomy, this textbook deals with the other three domains of tourism: travel, transportation, and entertainment. It tackles an actual work scenario on a passenger cruise ship, inside the aircraft, in a corporate setup, and on a city tour journey. Dialogues, scripts, and spiels are presented in every chapter to provide an interactive discussion and motivate the students to speak French confidently. Written activities and oral activities will enhance the students' linguistic knowledge and creativity. Jargons are also presented to familiarize the students with the common terminologies used in the field of tourism.

Toward the end, this textbook develops cultural awareness and promotes domestic tourism to foreign tourists, particularly the Francophones." --Preface
