A CONNECTING FLIGHT OF GIGGLES, ALL FROM THE SAME CONTRIBUTOR - THANKS FOR SHARING!
At a call centre for an Airline company:
Caller asks the consultant "for a booking from here to Sydney return."
The consultant asks,"Where are you calling from ?"
Caller,"My Kitchen."
........................................................
At the same call centre...
Caller asks,"Can I take my toy poodle with me on a flight?" (in Australia, animals must be carried in the baggage hold)
Consultant, "Yes of course, Madam."
Caller, "But where will I put it?"
Consultant, "In the overhead locker."
Caller, "You idiot. It's a real dog. The breed is a Toy Poodle."
........................................................
Back at the same call centre...
Caller advises, "I'm afraid I'm going to be a little overweight tomorrowfor my flight."
Consultant says,"That's alright Madam, you could purchase an extra seat."
Caller, "Not me, you fool! I'm talking about my luggage!"
........................................................
Still at the same airline call centre...
Consultant answers call with airline greeting.
Caller, not listening, "Yes, could I have a taxi?"
Consultant advises, "You have called _____ Airlines."
Caller, "I'm at this address..."
Consultant, "I'm sorry sir. But you have called _____ Airlines. I'm afraid you must have dialed the wrong number."
Caller, "Yes,yes, how long will the taxi be, I'm in a hurry" and repeats his address.
Consultant, "We'll send a plane for you. It will be about 15 minutes."
Caller, "Thanks mate, I'll be out the front. And hurry!"
........................................................
And lastly my favorite...
Caller: "I'm afraid of flying, is it ok if I bring my own parachute?"
Consultant: "You can take your parachute if you like, but it will be part of your baggage allowance."
Caller: "Oh no. I don't want to put it in the hold. How will it be any good in there if I need it ?"
Consultant: "No, it cannot be taken into the cabin with you."
Caller: "Why not ? It's very light, and would fit under my seat."
Consultant: "Well you see, if you have a parachute with you and nobody else does, it would suggest that you're leaving the aircraft. And nobody else is."
