Holiday madness
My boss went on holiday on Wednesday to Egpyt. Only when they got off the plane they found out that they had inadvertently booked a 2009 holiday, rather than a 2008 holiday and had arrived a year early. Ooops!
I have to be honest and say I dont know what happened next, they are still on holiday and we are waiting to hear the next installment. Are they even in Egypt? Will they have to go again next year and honour the holiday they have booked? Lots of unanswered questions still!
They had a good holiday in the resort, staying in a different hotel. They managed to get their flights and accomodation sorted out for 2008 thanks to helpful people at the airport.
But they are as we suspected going to have to go again next year. Apparently it wont be a hardship though as they did enjoy it.
Was the hotel able to acomodate your boss?

ReplyDeleteI think they probably will go again, as it would cost them a lot of money to cancel!!
ReplyDeleteyour boss must be back now, what was the outcome, I am dead curious to find out!!!
