Leah calling a travel agency

Terry: ‘FasTrip’ travel agency. Good morning, this is Terry. How can I help you?

Leah: Hello, Terry. This is Leah. I have a last-minute work trip and I need to book a trip from Southampton to Edinburgh. Which is the fastest and cheapest way to go there?

Terry: The fastest way to go from Southampton to Edinburgh is by plane, but the cheapest is by bus. The plane takes 2 hours while the bus takes 15 hours.

Leah: How much does the flight ticket cost?

Terry: The round trip costs about £600 and the bus ticket costs about £100. Now, I can recommend you to go by train. It is neither the cheapest nor the fastest, but it is definitely cheaper than the plane and faster than the bus. It is about £150 and it takes 8 hours to take you there.

Leah: That sounds awesome! I’m trying to buy the tickets from the website but I can’t. Is there any problem?

Terry: Unfortunately, our website is not working properly. You can look at the prices on the website, but if you want to buy the ticket, you have to come to our office. If you come now I can give you a discount. Our office is at West-Quay Mall.

Leah: Okay, I will go now!

Terry: That’s alright! See you later!
