“I just want you to get the order and I don't want you to do all this work and get no benefit”

Confirm receipt of the prides/documentation he mentioned sending to the main office address.
Full analysis
What happened
Roy (using contact name Sonia Kaplan) called to discuss transferring an existing Celebrity Cruises booking to Pavlus and to ask detailed questions about Sky Suite amenities and cabin-class benefits. Roy had already booked a cruise with Celebrity and deposited $1,800, and wanted to move to Pavlus to access agency perks. The agent (Taylor) explained the transfer process: Roy needed to complete a Pavlus transfer link and could deposit directly with Celebrity; once the booking transferred over (5-7 days), Taylor would apply Pavlus perks and provide updated invoices. Roy also asked whether his nephew (who booked a non-suite cabin) could access Sky Suite dining and pool amenities via a package purchase; Taylor said she'd research this once the booking transferred. By call end, Roy had provided his reservation number (7403789), understood the next steps, and seemed reassured by Taylor's commitment to check on the transfer daily.
Emotional read
Customer started somewhat anxious and detail-oriented, frustrated that prior email questions went unanswered and confused about booking transfer logistics. As the agent clarified the process and confirmed Taylor would monitor the transfer daily, the customer's anxiety eased noticeably. By call end, customer was appreciative and reassured, thanking the agent and confirming satisfaction.
Emotional arc through the call
Started cautious and slightly frustrated (unanswered email, confusion about process), then warmed considerably when Taylor committed to daily monitoring and clarified that team coordination ensures no lost benefits.
How customer sees Pavlus
- positive · appreciated that Taylor reassured him the booking would reach her regardless of which Pavlus agent he'd worked with on Sunday, and that the team helps each other out
- positive · expressed relief that Taylor would monitor the transfer daily and ensure he didn't lose perks due to timing
- negative · frustrated that email sent that morning with questions was never received by agent
Process friction
- customer's email with multiple questions sent to Pavlus on Sunday morning was not received or read by agent before call
- unclear communication about where to send deposit payment initially confused customer about direct Celebrity payment vs Pavlus
- amenity documentation from Celebrity is confusing and customer cannot easily read it; customer wanted written copy from Pavlus but agent cannot provide until booking transfers
- customer had to provide reservation number multiple times and ask clarifying questions about the transfer link process
Value perception
Customer perceives value in working with Pavlus to get perks applied to an existing booking, though wanted reassurance that switching agents wouldn't result in loss of those benefits. Not explicitly stated, but implied willingness to use Pavlus because perks justify the intermediary step.

Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Good afternoon, this is Taylor. Customer: Hello, good afternoon. Hi, this is Roy? Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Uh-huh hi, so couple of things number one. I highly if you do want to go with celebrity, I recommend you go ahead and deposit that way when it comes over to me, I'll be able to still apply our perks but it won't expire. Does that make sense? Customer: Okay. Yup, yeah, but that say that it won't be till five to seven days and that would be after the deadline. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Go ahead and deposit, and I'll still receive it and I'll still give you your perk but that will not yeah, so then you won't lose it. Customer: Okay. Okay, no. Okay, now let me, let me ask you a couple of questions. Okay? And maybe you can answer that and then that then that then that would not be a problem. That was, this is part of the email that I sent this morning that you never, you just didn't get it. Okay, okay, the first three questions was him that was to call me and what do you want me to do with the letter to San Francis and all of them before? But, yeah, about the hold. Okay. Okay, I guess I have to I what I would want to do is to add the goodies and insurance. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Okay. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Yeah, I never got it. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Okay, we can do that once I have the booking. Customer: Okay. Second thing is, is, is there any amenities that a difference in the award sky sweet no dean. Which is the only reason why I asked is because on the on the end isn't it you know, when they give you what things are with, with this type of a cabin and so they mentioned on it that is, it doesn't include you know a certain things. Okay, and I just want to know whether. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Okay, okay. Customer: You know, if who was just the same thing you know, that's all I expect. The other part of it is this is a personal thing. So, if you point about the amenities, that's and then the that we're up fine, okay. After we decided on this trip I far from that my favorite nephew was also booked on this trip. Now, he doesn't book a sweet now. Is there any package that or anything that I can buy, so that maybe I can spend some time with him, maybe in a restaurant. Maybe, I mean, especially if not necessarily the specialty rest of them that's not a problem but if I happen to go into the swimming pool, maybe I haven't spend the day there or something. I don't know. Can you find that out for me? Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Okay. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Mm-hmm. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Yes so usually if you're in a higher class you could potentially bring them that's something that like I said, I'll have to call on. I've had people that are in the retreat, and you can like go with them but purchase the package. So once I have your booking will you remind me and we'll take a look, cause, unfortunately, I can't check until I have that booking. Customer: Okay mom will take a look up for okay, that's fine no, who do I make the minimum deposit to so you? Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): You will call with celebrity. Customer: Okay. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Yeah, you'll make a deposit directly with them and then you will call me or I'm sorry. And then once I get that transferred booking we'll go from there. Now my question is what is your booking number? Customer: Okay, okay. Customer: Okay, can you find out for me in the meantime before I do that? Yeah, about the amenity. They're the same for us regardless of what we think is we've been on this guy on a regular Skye before on celebrating. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): And he, what. Is he in? Or he's going to be in like a lower cabin. Customer: Oh, no, no, I don't know, I don't know he no, no, no, I'm not talking about it now. I'm just talking about as far as I'm concerned.

Customer: Yes please. No, no, no, no. Is it? Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Okay. Customer: I don't know what they sent you over a copy of the speaker. They don't send me any copy of what the, of the amount is of the, of the whole thing is just what I to put it and you can, you can't read it if it's on there because they sent one with printing on the other side is a picture of it very confusing. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Yeah, and unfortunately, until I have that, I can't send you anything. Do you have your booking number? Customer: Okay. I guess I'll have to call celebrity and have them switch over, but because I didn't, well, I didn't cancel it. I just transferred it over to you. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Yeah.

Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): So, they, you can tell them but it's not gonna go any faster than the link that I sent you. So, what you did the right thing by filling out the link you technically can deposit to hold your space and once it goes through the transfer it'll come over to me and I'll give you our perks. Now.

Customer: Okay, thanks a lot. Customer: Okay. The only reason this should happen I had called Pavlus on Sunday. Well, I guess it was just a, and I wasn't sure whether you, it was gonna be switched over to you or that person I spoke to. We'll now have the order and I just want you to get and yeah, well. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): No, if you work with someone else, mm-hmm. Customer: Go ahead. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): If you work with someone else no matter what it'll always come back to me. We help each other out as a team. Yeah, so you're fine. Customer: Oh, okay, I didn't know that. Okay, because I had said whoever I spoke to, I just, I don't want you to do all this at work and you'll get no benefit or I don't want Taylor ticket out in this account. So, okay, I didn't know that. Okay. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): Sure. Agent (Taylor Bazzoni): I understand. Yup, you're fine. You're fine. So, I, like I said, I can't do anything until this gets. Customer: Oh, okay.

In the meantime call and deposit with them. Once it's transferred over, I'll send you your invoices and then we're good to go. So you're doing everything right. Customer: Okay.
