[putting luggage on scale]
Airline: I'm sorry, your luggage is 6
. That
will be an additional $100.
Tammy: I weighed those
bags before I came, are you sure their overweight?
Agent:
I'm sure. I'm sorry.
Tammy: But what can I do? I don't
want to pay extra. It's just a little over, can't you 7
?
Agent: I'm sorry, I can't. Do you have family
or friends with you today who aren't travelling?
Tammy: I
do.
Agent: 8
you take out some items
and let them hold them for you till you get back.
Tammy:
Okay, I suppose. What else can I do?
Agent: What about
the bag beside you? Will you be 9
that bag too?
Tammy:
No, I wish to carry it on the plane. Is it okay?
Agent:
As long as it will fit in the 10
or under
the seat. That seems like a 11
carry-on; you should be
okay.
Airline Ticket Agent: Here's your boarding pass. Your flight will be leaving out of gate 11B, terminal C. Please, place your luggage on the scale. [putting luggage on scale]
Airline: I'm sorry, your luggage is overweight. That
will be an additional $100.
Tammy: I weighed those
bags before I came, are you sure their overweight?
Agent:
I'm sure. I'm sorry.
Tammy: But what can I do? I don't
want to pay extra. It's just a little over, can't you let it
pass?
Agent: I'm sorry, I can't. Do you have family
or friends with you today who aren't travelling?
Tammy: I
do.
Agent: Might I suggest you take out some items
and let them hold them for you till you get back.
Tammy:
Okay, I suppose. What else can I do?
Agent: What about
the bag beside you? Will you be checking that bag too?
Tammy:
No, I wish to carry it on the plane. Is it okay?
Agent:
As long as it will fit in the overhead compartment or under
the seat. That seems like a standard carry-on; you should be
okay.
Security Checkpoint: Excuse me miss, but you have three big
bottles of shampoo and conditioners in your 1
. No
bottles above three 2
are allowed. (3 oz. = 88 ml; 88 cc)
Tammy: So,
what can I do?
Security: We'll have to 3
the items, miss.
Tammy: You mean keep them? Can I get
them back?
Security: 4
, miss.
[On
board, Tammy struggles to get her carry-on case into the overhead
compartment]
Flight Attendant: Here, let me help you
with that bag.
Tammy: Oh, thank you very much.
Attendant: Oh, I see the problem. Miss, your luggage is
too big for carry-on. We'll have to do a 5
and place
it with the other checked luggage below.
Tammy: But the
6
said it would be okay.
Attendant:
I'm sorry miss, but it's just too 7
. Did you buy anything
before you 8
?
Tammy: Oh, that's right, I
bought two books and some other items too. What can I do?
Attendant:
I tell you what, why don't you just take out the items you purchased
before boarding. I believe we can get your bag to fit in the
overhead. Then, just place your recently bought items under the seat
in front of you. We'll count that as a 9
carry-on.
How's that?
Tammy: I think that will work just fine.
Thank you so much!
Security Checkpoint: Excuse me miss, but you have three big
bottles of shampoo and conditioners in your carry-on. No
bottles above three ounces
are allowed. (3 oz. = 88 ml; 88 cc)
Tammy: So,
what can I do?
Security: We'll have to confiscate
the items, miss.
Tammy: You mean keep them? Can I get
them back?
Security: I'm afraid not, miss.

Flight Attendant: Here, let me help you
with that bag.
Tammy: Oh, thank you very much.
Attendant: Oh, I see the problem. Miss, your luggage is
too big for carry-on. We'll have to do a gate check and place
it with the other checked luggage below.
Tammy: But the
ticket agent said it would be okay.
Attendant:
I'm sorry miss, but it's just too bulky. Did you buy anything
before you boarded?
Tammy: Oh, that's right, I
bought two books and some other items too. What can I do?
Attendant:
I tell you what, why don't you just take out the items you purchased
before boarding. I believe we can get your bag to fit in the
overhead. Then, just place your recently bought items under the seat
in front of you. We'll count that as a personal item carry-on.
How's that?
Tammy: I think that will work just fine.
Thank you so much!
