Purchasing and Using an E-Ticket
I thought I would save time by purchasing my airline ticket online and checking in at the airport with my e-ticket. I went onto the McQ Air website and selected my flights. The screen then prompted me to pay with a credit card. After I typed in my payment information, I got a confirmation 1 receipt with my ticket number and my itinerary 2. I printed out a copy of my e-ticket and I was ready to go – easy!
But when I got to the airport, it was a different story. I went up to a self-serve kiosk and swiped my credit card to bring up my account. The computer said that it couldn’t find my account. I flagged down an employee and she didn’t have any better luck, suggesting I stand in line at the check-in counter.
I got in the long line and 45 minutes later, the employee helped me check in and gave me my boarding pass. When I asked her what the problem was, she said she didn’t know and it was probably just a glitch 3 in their computer system.
Well, the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry 4, especially if technology is involved!
Script by Dr. Lucy Tse
- We are waiting for confirmation of the news.我们正在等待证实那个消息。
- We need confirmation in writing before we can send your order out.给你们发送订购的货物之前，我们需要书面确认。
- The two sides have agreed on the itinerary of the visit.双方商定了访问日程。
- The next place on our itinerary was Silistra.我们行程的下一站是锡利斯特拉。
