M: Good morning. Can I help you?
W: Hello, my name’s Miss Bristow and I’m intending to go to a conference in Melbourne for 2 weeks.
M: I see. Do you want the excursion fare or the full return fare?
W: Now, can I get a stopover on an excursion fare?
M: Yes, you’re allowed only one stopover on the excursion fare.
W: Oh, I see, only one.
M: Yes. But of course, if you pay the full return fare then you can have unlimited stopovers.
W: Oh that’s much better. Yes. You see, the thing is that I’ve got two weeks’ holiday after the conference and I’ve never been out that way before at all to Australia or the Far East, and I wanted to go, you know, shopping or seeing Hong Kong or Shanghai or somewhere around there.
M: Yes. Um...
W: Where exactly can I go?
M: Well, lots of places. There’s Singapore or um, Thailand, you’ve really got quite a lot of choices you know.
W: Well, it sounds marvelous. Um, how much would that cost? How much is the full fare?
M: The full fare? Well, that’s really quite a lot. It’s 1,204 pounds.
W: A thousand two hundred and four. Well, it’s once a lifetime, you know, I’ve never been.
M: Um...
W: The thing is, actually that, um, I’m absolutely terrified of flying. I’ve never done it before.
M: Oh dear.
W: And err, I’m hoping that I can persuade my two friends, who are also going to the conference, to stop over with me on the way back.
M: That would be a good idea.
W: Um, yes. By the way, one of them is in Cairo at the moment. Would it be possible for me to stop over there on my way to Melbourne?
M: Yes, of course. There are plenty of flights to Cairo and plenty more onwards from Cairo to Melbourne. And then you can stay there for as long as you like.
W: Oh that’s great! Now, the thing is, I think I’d better go and persuade Mr. Gates that he’d like to stop with me in Cairo...
M: I see.
W: ...go and discuss it with him and then come back to you in a day or two, if that’s all right.
M: Yes, certainly.
W: Oh, thank you very much. OK, goodbye.
M: Thank you. Goodbye.
