Flying down to Puntacana

Voice: your flight is at 11 am tomorrow from the airport near Santo Domingo. Be there at 10:45

Me: 10:45? Isn’t that cutting it close? What about the 2 hour thing?

Voice: 2 hours? Don’t be silly, senor. 10 or 15 minutes is all you need here

Me: what is the flight number?

Voice: there is none - we don't do flight numbers.

Me: no flight number?

Voice: just board the small plane with 2 green stripes on its side.

Me: that’s it? Just board the small plane with 2 green stripes. Will there be a pilot?

Voice: why do you ask so many questions?

Me: Sorry. I'll be there ready to go. Green stripes you say?
