🔊 Daily Life - At The Airport
🅰️ Next please! Hello sir, may I see your passport please?
🅱️ Yes, here you go.
🅰️ Will you be checking any bags today.
🅱️ Yes, I’d like to check three pieces.
🅰️ I’m sorry, sir. Airline policy only allows 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.
🅱️ What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight! I’m flying sixteen thousand kms! How am I supposed to only take two, twenty kilo bags? That’s absurd!
🅰️ I am sorry, sir, there’s 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.
🅱️ 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.
🅰️ Let’s see... six hundred and twenty five US dollars.
🅱️ That’s more than my round-trip ticket!
