f   budget economy

g    Thursday 18th

h   11.30 am

i   normal economy

(Helen = South African)

Helen:     Good afternoon, sir. How can I help you?

Adam:     Yes, hello. I’d like to change my flight to Cape Town.

Helen:     Hmm. OK, so can you tell me the booking number?

Adam:     Umm … I don’t remember my booking number, to be honest.

Helen:     OK. That’s OK. Maybe just your family name then. Can you give me that?

Adam:     Yeah, my family name is Lister.

Helen:     Is that L-I-S-T-E-R?

Adam:     That’s right. Adam Lister.

Helen:     OK, let me just check that for you.

Adam:     The airline is South African Airlines and I think the flight number is SAA 235.

Helen:     Great. And when are you flying?

Adam:     Oh, it’s next Monday, the 15th.

Helen:     Ah yes, that’s right, SAA 235 from Johannesburg to Cape Town at 9 am. OK. What would you like to change?

Adam:     Would it be possible to fly three days later?

Helen:     OK, let me just check the availability. … Ah yes. There are flights on Thursday the 18th, but unfortunately the nine o’clock flight is full. What about another time that day?

Adam:     Is it possible to go in the morning? Are there other morning flights?

Helen:     There’s another flight at 11.30. How about that?

Adam:     11.30 sounds good.

Helen:     OK that’s great. There’s a different flight number. It’s SAA 327. Now one thing I just need to sort out with you is that your original ticket was a budget economy class ticket and …

Adam:     Yes, that’s right.

Helen:     Well, it’s the cheapest fare and unfortunately that can only be changed if it’s upgraded. So you’d need to get a normal economy class ticket.

Adam:     Normal economy class? So does that mean I have to pay more for another ticket?

Helen:     Yes, you do.

Adam:     Oh. How much more do I have to pay?

Helen:     Er, let me check … Er that’s 740 rand. Is that OK?

Adam:     Oh that’s quite a bit but … but I’ll change it anyway.

Helen:     OK. All right. Let me just print this out for you – print out your new itinerary.

1. Listen to Adam talking to Tom, a Tourist Information Officer in Cape Town. Look at the photos and match them to the statements below.

a   Adam went to this place today. …………………….

c   Adam hurt his back.

d    Adam paid a deposit of 50 rand.

b    cycled    walked

c   back    leg

d    50 rand    150 rand

e    12 hours    24 hours

f   helicopter    boat

(Tom = South African)

Adam:     I’ve got a problem. Perhaps you can help me.

Tom:       Yes, I’m sure I can. So what’s the problem?

Adam:     Well, I booked a trip to Cape Point and Peninsula for tomorrow. The problem is that today I did another tour – the Table Mountain tour.

Tom:       Right. That’s the hike isn’t it?

Adam:     Yes, and we walked all day and …

Tom:       Yes, it’s a really good trip.

Adam:     But I hurt my leg, so I don’t think I can do the tour tomorrow.

Tom:       Oh right. That’s the one by bike, isn’t it?

Adam:     Yeah. I really don’t want to do more exercise.

Tom:       Yeah, I can imagine.

Adam:     So I’d like to cancel the booking.

Tom:       Hmm. OK< so let me just check on the system. Have you already paid a deposit?

Adam:     Oh yes, there was a deposit of 150 rand.

Tom:       Unfortunately, if you cancel now, you will lose that deposit.

Adam:     Oh. Why is that?

Tom:       Well, because the company needs more than 24 hours notice.

Adam:     Oh, I see. Oh well …

Tom:       You can use the deposit for another activity.

Adam:     Yeah?

Tom:       We could look at something that doesn’t involve exercise.

Adam:     Good idea.

Tom:       A trip that lots of people do is a boat trip to Robben Island.

Adam:     OK.

Tom:       Would you be interested in doing that?

Adam:     Yeah, that sounds interesting.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
