A speaking
Hi this is B C at WWW
Hi Mr. C
I was wanting to make some arrangements for a trip that I'm going to be
taking uhh to LA uh beginning of the week after next see (eighteenth
nineteenth twentieth
[recording notification] ok ah let me pull up your profile and I'll be right with you here [profile, charge number] and you said you wanted to travel next week?
uh yes uh it I I- have to be in LA a couple of different places actually on
the nineteenth and twentieth, now I'm going to be down in San Diego on
personal business uh the previous weekend the sixteenth seventeenth and
eighteenth
uh huh
and basically I have to get into ah ah or near the Ontario airport for the
Sunday night and I leave out of the Irvine which I guess is John Wayne
Airport on the Tuesday.
ok
I guess the first question I had was uh are there
flights from San Diego to the Ontario airport in uh in LA or outside LA I
guess if (I
let me see)
if there's a real problem there I might keep a car which I'll have and simply
drive up
ok there's only two direct or nonstop flights from San Diego to Ontario and they're both in the morning on Sunday
Are they?
uh huh
I think I'm going to forget that
Otherwise I'd be I'd be routing you through um through Los Angeles
Seems a little ridiculous I think
uh huh now do you have to be there on uh Sunday mo- Sunday night or Monday morning?
uh uh i- i- it would be Monday uh uh Sunday night yeah
Well there's a like I say a seven a.m. flight in the morning (out of San Diego
??) no,no,no,no
ok
no, no, no obviously then uh I ha- as far as getting there I'll do it under my
own steam
ok
I'll just keep the rent a car that I'll have for personal reasons uh for that
weekend
ok
Umm
so on the twentieth you want me to ( look at the return [hotel reservation]
that's wonderful so what it boils down to is just one flight getting
out of there
ok (on the twenty
uh now it wi- will be near the John Wayne Airport I guess it i- it is John
Wayne in Irvine (isn't it?
yes,) yes it is
and um and um as far as I can see we're going to have a pretty full day
meeting on the on Tuesday the twentieth uh I think I ought to be looking at
a flight out of there perhaps no earlier than round about seven o'clock
ok is this going (back to
back to back to San Francisco)
to San Francisco
yeah
excuse me there's an American flight at seven thirty
oh no I was going to say that if I had my choice I'd pick American simply
because I've got the uh advantage
mm hmm
I I'm sorry I (my enthusiasm ??
Yeah) yeah the um let me see here we've got you on American flight nine thirty eight
yep
leaving on the twentieth of June out of Orange County John Wayne Airport at seven thirty p.m.
seven thirty
and into uh San Francisco at eight fifty seven
that sounds great
ok and that is ninety nine dollars one way
and uh I think that's going to do it, those two ho- hotel reservations and and
the one flight
you're all set then [ticketing]
