W: Hi, Jim. How are things going?
M: Just fine, Ellen, how are you?
W: Oh, I’m just fine.
M: Well, I’ve got to go to Hong Kong next month, and I’d like you to make the arrangements.
W: Wonderful! When do you want to go?
M: OK, I’ve got to be there from the sixth through the ninth of February.
W: OK, the sixth through the ninth. Now, the sixth is a Thursday. Do you know, if you could leave on Friday, the seventh, before noon, I could get you a special weekend fare for only three hundred dollars. That’s a real bargain. The regular fare is five hundred dollars.
M: What time would I arrive in Hong Kong on the seventh?
W: Let me check. At nine o’clock.
M: Is that a direct flight?
W: Yes.
M: That sounds good, but I really should be there the night before. What about other specials?
W: OK, well, there is a seven-day excursion fare. That’s cheaper, but that means you have to go for seven or more days, and you have to fly on weekdays. The fare is two hundred and eighty dollars round trip.
M: When does the flight leave?
W: Oh, that flight leaves at three twenty in the afternoon and arrives in Hong Kong at seven o’clock.
M: Is that a nonstop flight?
W: No. There is a half-hour stop over in Tokyo, but you don’t have to change planes, at least.
M: You know, it might be possible for me to stay in Hong Kong for a week, because I have a lot of friends down there. I’ll think it over and let you know my final decision in a few days. Thank you very much.
W: You are welcome.
