10. (d) Now YOU ARE "JANE" - TALK TO "THE TRAVEL AGENT"

Jane:	Good afternoon. Could you tell me if there's a morning ferry from here to Plymouth?
Travel Agent:	Yes, it's eight o'clock on Mondays and Wednesdays.
Jane:	And what time does it get to Plymouth?
Travel Agent:	Seven o'clock the following evening.
Jane:	There's only one ferry, is that right?
Travel Agent:	Yes, it departs at eight o'clock.
Jane:	Uh-huh. And how much is the fare?
Travel Agent:	That depends on what type of accomodation you would prefer. How many are travelling with you Miss?
Jane:	Well, we're two adults and a child, and we'd like a cabin of our own. What sort of accommodation is there on the boat?
Travel Agent:	Well, there's either a four berth cabin or a two berth cabin. They can both be standard or special. What time of year do you wish to travel?
Jane:	We're going in August.
Travel Agent:	August. Well, for a four-berth cabin it would be €50 per person, and for a special cabin, which has got wash-basin, shower and toilet, that would be €60 per person. It's half fare for children, under twelve.
Jane:	Oh, that's good news! Well, our child is under twelve.
Travel Agent:	It's half fare, then. So, if you pay at the end of July a special cabin is €150 for the three of you and a standard cabin is €125. We also have five couchette cabins which are a bit cheaper, they are €30 per person but there is no discount for children.
Jane:	€30.
Travel Agent:	That's only for the single jouney passengers. All prices include dinner, berth and breakfast, so there are two meals included plus the accommodation.
Jane:	And what about taking our car, will that be extra?
Travel Agent:	Yes, the car charges will be based on the length of the vehicle. What kind of car do you have Madam?
Jane:	Oh, it's a Rover. I have an idea of the length.
Travel Agent:	That'd be €30 each way.
Jane:	€30...
Travel Agent:	Yes, for one way.
Jane:	Is there any discount for a return journey?
Travel Agent:	No, it's the same price.
Jane:	And what about reservations? Do we have to book in advance?
Travel Agent:	Yes, we have to confirm the availability of the cabins.
Jane:	OK. Well, thank you very much. I'll probably call back to book the tickets. I'll have to think about it first.
Travel Agent:	That's fine, Madam. Thank you.
