Point in case !
Had a shoot in the Maldives. 16 Islands.
LHR-DUB-MLE
Booked Cattle Class on Emirates for 1st leg.
24hrs later my travel guy came back saying sorry, only one seat left in coach, one of you has been upgraded to business.
No way Jose. Both or none !
Travel guy comes back, OK, pay another €400 and you are both in business.
Client approves, so of we go.
Get to boarding and asked for boarding passes and tickets. WTF ??
Get handed an envelope and told to turn left on boarding.
There we are, pointy end.
Eventually looked at contents of envelope. Tickets about 5 times more than we (or client) had actually paid.
Bing Bong. Cabin person rocks up.
Excuse me but what is with this astronomical price.
Well sir, if you happen to drop your original tickets and someone picks them up, seeing what you really paid, sh#t could hit the fan !!
Chilled vodka with your caviar sir?
Why not sez us :-)
