8th's Travel Agent Horror Stories: |
|
► A woman called and said, "I need to fly to Pepsi-cola
on one of those computer planes." I asked if she meant to
fly to Pensacola on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever."
► A businessman called and had a question about the
documents he needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy
discussion about passports, I reminded him he needed a visa.
"Oh no I don't, I've been to China many times and never had
to have one of those." I double checked and sure enough, his
stay required a visa. When I told him this he said, "Look,
I've been to China four times and every time they have accepted
my American Express."
► A woman called to make reservations, "I want to go
from Chicago to Hippopotamus, New York." The agent replied:
"Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes, what flights
do you have?" replied the customer. After some searching,
the agent came back with, "I'm sorry, ma'am, I've looked up
every airport code in the country and can't find a Hippopotamus
anywhere."
The customer retorted, "Oh don't be silly. Everyone knows
where it is. Check your map!" The agent scoured a map of the
state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo,
do you?
