Transcript
Announcement: Attention passengers on flight BA two forty-seven to London Heathrow. We regret to inform you that your flight has been delayed by approximately two hours due to severe weather conditions at the destination. The new estimated departure time is four fifteen PM. Passenger: Excuse me, will I miss my connecting flight to Edinburgh? Agent: Let me check your itinerary. Your connection departs at seven thirty PM, so with the two-hour delay you should still make it. However, I would recommend going to the transfer desk upon arrival to confirm your gate. Passenger: Is there any compensation for the delay? Agent: For delays over two hours, you are entitled to a meal voucher worth fifteen dollars. You can use it at any restaurant in the terminal. Here you go. Passenger: Thank you. Where can I charge my phone? My battery is almost dead. Agent: There are charging stations next to gates B eight and B twelve, and free power outlets near the bookstore.
