How a Flight Booking can go Really wrong


Dear Reader, this week I had a belly rolling guffaw, ladylike giggle at my friend Tom Lay's latest flight booking.  I have typed the letter he received for your enjoyment.

Dear Mr Lay

Thank you for contacting us regarding the unusual error on your booking. We understand that the second passenger’s name is in fact ‘Thomas Lay’ and not ‘Thomas Laying in bed’ and that this mistake is due to the auto-correct function on the mobile phone you used to make the booking.

We have put a note on your booking giving the correct passenger name. Please print a copy of this email for your journey.


Yours

    Snort. A blogging friend prefaces many of her comments with apologies for the 'evil ipad'. She would empathise - to the max.

    What a hoot! But it does make a person wonder how their own name could be corrupted without knowing it. Hmmmmm....

      I guess with a travel booking once you;ve pressed send you can't edit.
