Bus or Plane
"Don't worry," said Ashot, "we’re gonna have to take a taxi to the city, we'll make up!"
They took their suitcases and bags from the conveyor belt and put them on the carts.
"Now that we have our baggage we should try to buy tickets to our destination city," said Harut.
"Are we going to fly there?" wondered Arman.
"Well, it depends on many circumstances. Let's first try to find out how much the plane tickets are and the flight schedules, then we're gonna decide whether we should fly or ride a bus."
"A bus? But it will take us forever to get there by bus!" objected Levon.
"Not really forever, but that's just about the only disadvantage of riding a bus," explained Harut.
"Then what are the advantages?" inquired Alex, "tell me because Nelly and I will have to take a bus to Boston anyway."
"Is she coming with you?" asked Ashot.
"Yes, I am," answered Nelly. "I have to see my brother-in-law and pass him something."
"We will join you later, you won't have enough time to miss us! So, anyway, tell us the advantages of riding a bus."
"Well, first of all, the cost. Bus fares are usually much cheaper than airfares."
"Yes, but airfares are sometimes almost the same as bus fares if not less," joined Samvel.
"Yeah, that's true, too, but not very often. Whereas if you go by
bus you will save on transportation to and from airports, spend a night in the bus, and therefore save on housing, too," said Harut summarizing.
