Travel: (B) Their Seats Are Far Apart
Travel: (B) Their Seats Are Far Apart
W: Dennis, which seat are you sitting in? Mine says 33F.
M1: 43E. We aren't anywhere near each other. And I needed to talk to you about the
meeting during the flight.
W: Let's ask if we can switch seats with the person next to me. Excuse me, my
colleague and I would really like to sit next to each other during this flight. Would
you mind switching seats with him?
M2: Not at all. I'm flying alone, so it doesn't matter to me.
W: Thank you so much. Also, let me buy you a drink as a way of thanking you.
W: Hello, this is Kimberly Campbell, and I'm sorry, but I have to cancel my room
reservation for this weekend. I have a family emergency, and I can't leave town.
M: We can definitely cancel that for you. Unfortunately, there is a $75 fee for any
cancellations within 48 hours of check-in.
W: I understand. How much do I owe now?
M: Since you paid in advance, we will deduct the fee from your payment. We will
credit you the same way you paid for it.
W: Oh, no. I believe I paid with a credit card that is now expired.
M: In that case, we will issue a refund check. For this, we will need a copy of a photo
ID and your home address. I will text you the e-mail address you can use to send it
to me.

W: What will you do after the conference in New York next week? Will you stay an
extra few days like you did after the conferences in Chicago and Philadelphia?
M: I wasn't planning on it, but I might consider it. I've never been to New York
before.
W: It is really lovely. I went last year for vacation and enjoyed it.
M: Well, I think I'll stay an extra day or two. But I have to be back in the office for an
important meeting the following Monday.
W: Oh, that's right. Bridgestone Consulting? Good luck with that meeting.

M: Thank you for staying with us, Ms. Middleton. Here is your bill.
W: Umm ... I think there is a mistake. I've never dined at the restaurant here.
M: Oh, is that right? Let me look into that. One moment ...
Yes, it seems it was charged to the wrong room. I'm sorry about that. Besides that,
was everything else to your satisfaction?
W: Yes. Also, could you give this tip to the spa? I was in such a rush to get to a lunch
appointment I completely forgot.
M: Not a problem. I'll hand it to them after you leave.
