Subject: Request for rescheduling the meeting.

Hi, Carlos.

Sorry for the short notice, but we need to postpone the marketing meeting scheduled for Wednesday, April 17th.

We've encountered a scheduling conflict with an unexpected visitor from abroad. 

We'd like to propose rescheduling it for the following week, beginning Monday, April 22nd.

Please let us know your preferred time slots.
We'll do our best to accommodate your schedule.

Many thanks.
Chinatsu.

Hi, Chinatsu.

No problem.
I completely understand the situation.

I'm afraid the following week won't work for me due to a prescheduled business trip to Geneva.

How about the week after next?
Tuesday, April 30th or Thursday, May the 2nd will work well for me.

Best regards.
Carlos.

Subject: Meeting cancellation

Dear Chinatsu.

I apologize for the last-minute notice, but regrettably I need to cancel our meetings scheduled for tomorrow due to a private matter that has unexpectedly come up.

At this moment, I'm unable to propose alternative dates.
It may take a few days, but I notify you as soon as things are settled. 

Thank you for your understanding and patience during this time.

Regards.
Andrew.
