Elementary ‐ Daily Life ‐ At The Airport (C0089)

A: Next please! Hello sir, may I see your passport please?

B: Yes, here you go.

A: Will you be checking any bags.

B: Yes, Id like to check three pieces.

A: Im sorry, sir. Airline policy allows only two pieces of checked luggage, at

twenty kilograms each, plus one piece of carry-on luggage. I will have to charge

you extra for the additional suitcase.

B: What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight! Im flying sixteen

thousand kms! How am I supposed to only take two, twenty kilo bags? Thats

absurd!

A: I am sorry, sir, theres nothing I can do. You cannot board the flight with

that large bag either. Carry-on bags must fit in the over-head compartment or

under your seat. That bag is clearly too big.

B: Now I see. You charge next to nothing for an international ticket, but

when it comes to charging for any other small thing, you charge an arm and a

leg! So tell me, miss, how much will I have to pay for all of this.

A: six hundred and twenty-five US dollars.
