Why Americans Should Never Be 
Allowed To Travel

The following are actual stories provided by travel agents: 
 

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

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

I got a call from a man who asked,  "Is it possible to see England from Canada?" I said, "No." He said, "But they look so close on the map." 

Another man called  and asked if he could rent a car in Dallas. 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 woman called and asked, "Do airlines put your physical description on your bag so they know who's luggage belongs to who?" I 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.

    
Seems unbelieveable, doesn't it?
