Mr. Jordan is going to London. He prefers to travel by air. Mr Jordan is a businessman so he tries to save his time. He can’t afford to waste time. Certainly, it is much more expensive than travelling by train, but it is less time consuming. So he asks his secretary, Miss Pane, to make a reservation for him.

(speaking over the telephone): Good morning. I want to make a reservation for a non-stop flight to London. Are there any seats available on Monday? |

Travel agent: |
Just a minute… Let me check. What time of day do you want to go? |
|
Miss Pane: |
In the afternoon. |

Travel agent: |
All right. Flight number 2500 is full but there is a space on Turkish Airlines flight at 3:00. Does that suit you? |

Miss Pane: |
The Turkish Airlines suit me perfectly. What time does it get in? |

Travel agent: |
At 5:40 p.m. |

Miss Pane: |
That’s very convenient. And what is the number of the flight? |
