Reading Test 19 · Part 1 (Airport Pickup Terminal Change)Pro

Read the following message.

From: Selena Adeyemi

To: Rohan Foster

Subject: New Pickup Point for Uncle Ravi

Hi Rohan,

I wanted to check our plans for picking up Uncle Ravi from the airport on Monday. You planned to wait at Terminal One while I watched his flight updates. I was looking forward to it, and everything seemed settled until this week. I need to change the plan because his airline moved the arrival to Terminal Three.

Construction closed the original international baggage hall for the week. As a result, the parking reservation and our meeting point no longer match his flight. I first called airport parking and checked the terminal shuttle route. The short-stay lot at Terminal Three has spaces if we change before Sunday.

I also checked the earlier arrangements before deciding which alternative might cause the least disruption. One detail to keep in mind is that Uncle Ravi does not have mobile data after landing and expects to see you near baggage claim. My preferred solution is moving the parking booking and meeting at Terminal Three Door Six. That would work best because it keeps the pickup simple for him and avoids a shuttle with heavy luggage.

It would solve the immediate problem while keeping the useful details already settled. If that works for you, I can update everything else as soon as you reply. Another possibility is keeping Terminal One parking and taking the airport shuttle. The difficulty with that option is that the transfer could delay us and Uncle Ravi would wait without updates.

I thought about dropping the plan completely, but that would create more trouble than it solves. I’d rather use one of the practical alternatives that is already available. The practical detail I have not resolved is that the parking account is under my email but your vehicle plate is attached. Please tell me what you think we should do about that part of the plan.

I kept the records about picking up Uncle Ravi from the airport on Monday together for this review. No other related plan needs to change while this matter is reviewed. A written reply about moving the parking booking and meeting at Terminal Three Door Six would prevent confusion. Thank you for considering the timing and practical effects of this request.

I need your answer by Saturday afternoon. The free parking change expires before the weekend rate begins. What I’m hoping is that you can agree to Door Six and confirm that your vehicle plate is unchanged. Once I hear from you, I will update the parking booking and print a sign with his name.

Talk soon,

Selena

Hi Selena,

Thanks for explaining the mix-up and the options you considered. I understand that . The first plan made sense, but this new issue clearly needs a different answer.

I can confirm that . That choice is suitable because . I’ve updated my notes so we won’t treat the earlier plan as final.

Because Uncle Ravi does not have mobile data after landing and expects to see you near baggage claim, . I will send the revised instructions after I finish the update today. The other option can remain available if something changes before the deadline.

Please reply by so I know you accept the revised plan. After your confirmation, I will send the revised parking code and terminal map. Thanks for giving me enough detail to sort this out without another long exchange.

See you soon,

Rohan
