    A woman called to make reservations, "I want to go from Chicago
    to Hippopotamus, New York" The agent was at a loss for words.
    Finally, the agent: "Are you sure that's the name of the town?"
    "Yes, what flights do you have?" replied the customer.
    After some searching,the agent came back with, "I'm sorry,
    ma'am, I've looked up every airport code in the country and
    can't find a hippopotamus anywhere."
    The customer retorted, "Oh don't be silly. Everyone knows where
    it is. Check your map!"
    The agent scoured a map of the state of New York and finally
    offered, "You don't mean Buffalo, do you?" "That's it! I knew
    it was a big animal!"

        I had someone ask for an aisle seat so that their hair wouldn't
        get messed up by being near the window.

        A client called in inquiring about a package to Hawaii. After
        going over all the cost info, she asked, "Would it be cheaper
        to fly to California and then take the train to Hawaii?"

        I got a call from a woman who wanted to go to Cape Town. I
        started to explain the length of the flight and the passport
        information when she interrupted me with "I'm not trying to
        make you look stupid, but Cape Town is in Massachusetts."
        Without trying to make her look like the stupid one, I calmly
        explained, "Cape Cod is in Massachusetts, Cape Town is in
        Africa." Her response ... click.

        A man called, furious about a Florida package we did. I asked
        what was wrong with the vacation in Orlando. He said he was
        expecting an ocean-view room. I tried to explain that is not
        possible, since Orlando is in the middle of the state. He
        replied, "Don't lie to me. I looked on the map and Florida is
        a very thin state."

            When I pulled up the reservation, I noticed he had a 1-hour
            lay-over in Dallas. When I asked him why he wanted to rent a
            car, he said, "I heard Dallas was a big airport, and I need
            a car to drive between the gates to save time."

            A nice lady just called. She needed to know how it was possible
            that her flight from Detroit left at 8:20am and got into
            Chicago at 8:33am. I tried to explain that Michigan was an hour
            ahead of llinois,but she could not understand the concept of
            time zones. Finally I told her the plane went very fast, and
            she bought that!

            A woman called and asked, "Do airlines put your physical
            description on your bag so they know who's luggage belongs to
            who?" she said, "No, why do you ask?" She replied, "Well, when
            I checked in with the airline, they put a tag on my luggage
            that said FAT, and I'm overweight, is there any connection?"
            After putting her on hold for a minute while I 'looked into
            it' ( I was actually laughing) I came back and explained the
            city code for Fresno is FAT, and that the airline was just
            putting a destination tag on her luggage.

            I just got off the phone with a man who asked, "How do I know
            which plane to get on?" I asked him what exactly he meant,
            which he replied, "I was told my flight number is 823, but none
            of these darn planes have numbers on them."

              A woman called and said, "I need to fly to Pepsi-cola on one of
              those computer planes." I asked if she meant to fly to Pensacola
              on a commuter plane. She said, "Yeah, whatever."

              A business man called and had a question about the documents he
              needed in order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion
              about passports,I reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh no I don't,
              I've been to China many times and never had to have one of
              those." I double checked and sure enough, his stay required a
              visa. When I told him this he said, "Look,I've been to China
              four times and every time they have accepted my American
              Express."

                  Very hung over.

                  Very, very hung over indeed.
                  was it 5 days? 6 days?

                  a 5 day hangover?

                  I only know 1 man who gets that - and will die any minute. a severe alcoholic - goes dry for 2 weeks, 2 days drinking then 5 days rolling in sick/poo/pee. then repeat from step 1.

                  Is your first name Matt?
