Hope
this
letter finds you in good health. I am sorry for not being able to meet you at Hotel Taj on Sunday afternoon as planned earlier. I can understand your disappointment and I am apologetic for the same.
To start with, I was on a flight from Paris last
Saturday and was supposed to reach Delhi by Sunday early morning. Unfortunately, due to some technical ,glitches the flight didn’t fly as per the schedule and was delayed by half a day. Then
, my battery on my phone got completely drained out and there was no way to send a message of this
delay. Finally
, I reached Delhi much later in the evening and was completely exhausted from the journey. I had an important client meeting to attend on Monday and wanted to rest completely and be fresh for the same.
The discussion with the customer went well and I was able to win some important contracts for my company. Now that I have completed all my work, I really want to meet you before heading back. Please let me know your convenient time and I will take care of bookingsSubmitted by praveena.tirumala on

The Greeting
Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.
Always start an informal letter in the ways:
- Dear + name
- Hi / Hello + name
‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.
For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:
- Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
- Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
