PHONE CALLS TO A TRAVEL AGENT

A lady told  me, "I need to fly to Pepsi-Cola, Florida.  Do I have to get on one of those little computer planes?" I asked if she meant fly to Pensacola, Florida, on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever!"

A traveler 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 that 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 lady called to make a reservation. "I want to go from Chicago to Rhino, New York."  I was at a loss.
Finally I asked, "Are you sure that's the name of the town?" "Yes. What flights do you have?"  After some searching, I came back with, “I'm sorry, ma’am. I've looked up every airport code in the country and I can't find a Rhino anywhere."  The lady retorted, "Oh, don't be silly!  Everyone knows where it is. Check your map!"  I scoured a map of the state of New York and finally offered, "You don't mean Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew it was a big animal!"

  1. Oh was that a wonderful feast of color! We got more snow last night and most of the day, it is still a winter less-than-wonderland out my window.

  2. The cherry blossom in my front yard is under the street light, and it's magical at night, when it's in bloom. I'd especially enjoy visiting that promenade near the river.
