Hey buddies, para hablar sobre planes futuros en inglés utilizamos varios tiempos verbales. Os los resumimos de una manera muy sencilla. Vamos allá:
Talking about the future
We use going to to talk about what we intend to do or things we’ve decided to do.
E.g. I’m going to prepare a special meal for Christmas day.
They are going to throw a big party on New Year’s Eve.
We use will to make a spontaneous promise or an offer to do something.
E.g. We’ll buy funny presents for «secret Santa» this year.
I’ll help them wrapping up the presents.
We use both will and going to for predictions
E.g. Children will get many toys and presents.
There’s going to be many people travelling to their home place.
We use present continuous to talk about fixed plans or arrangements.
E.g. We are having a get together meal with all our co-workers.

We use the present simple to talk about a schedule.
E.g. Our flight leaves at 15:50h on the 23th of December.

We use future continuous (will be doing) to talk about an action in progress at a specific time in the future.
