By Amy Doherty
- Why would you want to go there?
- You should tell them to move somewhere nicer.
- It’s pretty full. You should have booked earlier.
- That’s the price. Wait, I forgot the tax… oh boy.
- Wow. You really should have booked earlier.
- Window or aisle? Yeah, I thought you were a window person.
- Let’s see….Ooh. That’s not good.
- You know you could go to Hawaii for that price.
- Where are you from? Really? I thought you were English. You sound English.
- Did you want to fly on Christmas day? It’s cheaper. Not much, though.
- How do you feel about multiple connections?
- I could book you on this airline but… [makes face]
- Going with your boyfriend? Friend. Just friend?
- How do you feel about leaving at 6:10? No, a.m.
- Change it again? You’re killing me, Amy.
- I would not go to the US without travel insurance. Not even transit. You could break your leg and boom, thousands of dollars.
- I’ll waive our fee. You’re already paying enough.
