I am sorry. I will not be able to attend the meeting.

This phrase is correct and commonly used to politely decline attending a meeting or event.

This phrase is used to express regret for not being able to attend a meeting or event. It is a polite and formal way to inform others of your absence.

Examples:

  • I am sorry, but I will not be able to attend the conference next week.
  • I am sorry, I have a prior commitment and cannot attend the party.
  • I am sorry, but I won't be able to make it to the meeting tomorrow.
  • I am sorry, I won't be able to join you for dinner tonight.
  • I am sorry, I cannot attend the wedding as I will be out of town.
