The Greens got a rather unhappy surprise when they tried to fly from Cardiff to Lanzarote last weekend. Because of a had mistake at the airline check-in desk, the Greens got on the wrong flight(航班) and ended up in Ankara. So how did the mix-up happen？
It was five o' clock on Sunday morning when Charlie and Kate Green arrived at Cardiff airport with their nine-year-old daughter Tina. They checked in properly for their fight to Lanzarote, but the check-in attendant(服务员) made a mistake with their boarding passes and also sent them to the wrong boarding gate. Unluckily, it was so curly and the Greens were feeling so tired that they didn't notice any thing wrong. What was worse, there weren't any announcements in the boarding gate area.
When the Greens finally got on the plane, Charlie and Kate Green fell asleep at once, though there were interesting films, magazines, newspapers and music for them to choose to spend the boring time. Little Tina took out a history book about Rome and read. Two hours later, she fell asleep too. They didn't wake up until six hours later, when the plane was landing. Suddenly, the flight attendant said. "Welcome to Ankara!" The Greens couldn't believe it and little Tina was quite unhappy, The family had to get off the plane and then pay 10 for a tourist visa(签证). In the end, they decided to get back home, living at 5:00 p.m. on the same day.
