Please correct
Could anybody help me with this message I need to send it. If something is wrong please correct.
Thanks in advance.
Dear Katya,
I need the flight schedule for the following routes during the next ten days:
London - Moscow - London and Moscow - Islamabad - Moscow
I know the days should be specified but for now I need to know which days during the week these flights are available as well as the tickets’ prices. I have one more question. Is it possible to pay for the ticket here so that the passenger could get it in London.
Regards,
Thanks in advance.

Hello Anonymous As it stands, your message is clear and would not be misunderstood. However, I would like to suggest to you the following alterations: 1) I would like the flight schedule for the next ten days for the following routes: 2) as well as the ticket prices. 3) Would it be possible to pay for the ticket *here and the passenger collect it in London.

I'm finding the routes a bit complicated. Is it one ticket with a number of Stops - London - Moscow -Islamabad -Moscow
or stwo different trips?
London to Moscow
(What is the London and Moscow part about?)
Islamabad to Moscow.
Are they returns or singles?
Your final sentence is a question so finish with a ?

Unfortunately my grasp of English Grammar is not that sophisticated to explain the reasons why, but from a native speaker point of view, I would either use "prices of the tickets" or "ticket prices" - "tickets' prices" does not sound correct.
Perhaps someone else can educate us.
