James was on a plane and he was heading to New York City and he was going to New York to visit his father in Prison because he was moved from London to New York after there was a flight in the prison which meant one of them had to go to New York instead.

So James dad agreed to go instead. So now if James wants to go to New York he has to go there to visit his dad  instead of a holiday.
