 A:     Next please! Hello sir, may I see your passport

        please?


 B:    Yes, here you go.


 A:    Will you be checking any bags.


 B:    Yes, I’d like to check three pieces.


 A:     I’m sorry, sir. Airline policy allows only two pieces

       of  checked  luggage, at  twenty  kilograms each,

        plus one piece of carry-on luggage. I will have

       to charge you extra for the additional 1 suitcase.


 B:    What? Why! I am taking an intercontinental flight!

       I’m flying sixteen thousand kms! How am I sup-

       posed 2 to only take two, twenty kilo bags? That’s

       absurd 3!

 A:     I am sorry, sir, there’s nothing I can do. You

       cannot board the flight with that large bag either.

       Carry-on bags must fit in the over-head compart-

        ment or under your seat. That bag is clearly too

        big.


 B:     Now I see.  You charge next to nothing for an in-

       ternational ticket,  but when it comes to charging

       for any other small thing, you charge an arm and

       a leg! So tell me, miss, how much will I have to

        pay for all of this.


 A:     Let’s see... six hundred and twenty-five US dol-

        lars.


 B:    That’s more than my round-trip ticket!
