How should I say someone to move so that I can get past them?
I found some expressions to say but I'm not sure whether are correct or not. If you are a native English speaker what would you say in this situation?

Excuse me, _________________?

Can I get past?
Can I get by?
May I please?
Can I slide past you?
Can I squeeze past you?
May I pass through?

I would say, "Pardon me." 🌺

If you the situation is obvious, "excuse me" is enough.

Excuse me, I need to get through / I need to get past you / I need to squeeze past you / I need to get by
