Billy: I'd like to go on Friday the fifth of next month.
Agent: Return or one-way?

Agent: OK. I'll just check on the computer. OK, do you want economy or business class?
Billy: Oh, business class is expensive. I prefer economy. How much is that?
Agent: Let me see. Four return tickets in economy, and your departure date is the fifth. OK. We've got Air New Zealand and Qantas for those dates. On Air New Zealand it's six thousand New Zealand dollars, about two thousand pounds. Qantas is more expensive - about two thousand, three hundred pounds, but it's a shorter flight.
