In Japan, got Japanese ar?

The other day I was manning a tour desk for a day and my duties consisted of entertaining phone calls from potential and would-be customers. There was quite a huge number of phone calls and some of the calls was rather straight forward inquiry calls and some of the calls was just incredibly hilarious and ridiculously stupid!

I would like to share some of the phone calls that had me giggling just thinking about it during dinner time and still shaking my head at bed time:

MAN: Hello. Is that xxx tour company?
ME: Yes sir. Good morning and thank you for your call.
MAN: I would like to inquire about a trip to Korea during winter.
ME: What is it that you would like to know,sir?
MAN: I am planning to go in December. Winter,right? That time will it be cold ar?
ME: ??????

LADY: I am thinking of going to Japan and i want to fly on the A380.
ME: Yes, we do have tours to Japan traveling by A380. The flight will be operated by Singapore Airlines. Therefore we have to transit in Singapore.

ME: No maam. Malaysia Airline did bought the A380. Just that the supplier has yet to supply it yet.
