Agent (Pam Chavez): Okay.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, oh, no.
Customer: No, you're, this is what you need. This is what you get paid to do, right? You're a smart lady does sky, let me use this silly discount again, if I book a river cruise for say $2,025 or is this a one time? Good deal.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Which in the P-V whatever it is a day or whatever. Yeah, oh, no, yeah, no, that make a manage you want.
Customer: That F-V 3:24.
Customer: Oh, okay. Yeah, I didn't know, yeah, no, here here's the one question we still want it. We, I, I'd stay await thinking about this, I don't, but I think about it all day we want to do the tow you know, far gig down to South Africa and I want to tie it on with the European trip because our take on life is it's so damn far. You know, we're over there, we do something else, yeah, so I'm trying to, I'm trying to sync it up with a Viking trip. Just, you know, number one the break it up and do something the number two if I can you know, get biking airfare for 3000 to Europe and I can work, worry about getting to, you know Africa from there.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Mm-hmm Africa, mm-hmm uh-huh.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, gotcha. Mm-hmm.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Mm-hmm.
Customer: So, my question you, yeah, it's, so that's kind of what I'm thinking of doing. Sounds stupid but it's just whatever.
Agent (Pam Chavez): No I, I get it, yeah, it is, I mean, it is such a such a distance to get to South Africa.
Customer: Yeah, and.
Customer: Yeah, and I'm looking at trying to, you know, do a cruise that starts, or ends, obviously you know, near, near a, a town with an airport like Munich or someplace. You know, we can catch up. Yeah, so so yeah, so I'm thinking about the Dani.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Aster dam, Asda might be an idea.
Customer: Yeah, we did one of them but there's another one we haven't done. So maybe, maybe we do Amster I was looking at KLM and I think they do fly, not stop down there, well tape ton or something.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Too. Yeah, I think they do to that. That my, my reason for actually saying that one because you know, I think that it will probably be a nice.
Customer: Yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Place to, to, to go from to go to ca.
Customer: Yeah, and the other nice thing is we could start our cruise there and then ended there and we could just do the Viking air deviation whatever. And then and then fly back there you know, from a Johannesburg and then I guess fly home like a day or two later screw after if we want. Yeah. Cool, alright, well I'll be, yeah, I'll take a look. I know they have one, we, we've done two little two windmills but I think they have something else in and something else.

One, the new ship but it was this a cruise out of Los Angeles and oh, god, it was like three days and the, it was that time when the waters were so rough in Los Angeles and stuff and we were only supposed to go from Los Angeles to Sina.

I got up, went to breakfast with rose and we go looking at all the rooms. Cause, that's what we're supposed to do is kinda like take pictures of the nice rooms and everything and then we sat down for lunch after taking a nap of course and I got up to the top deck to the, wherever the do do deck is what I call it but.
Customer: Yeah, right.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: Oh, okay. Yup.

Customer: Mm-hmm.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Auston I think I went fly. I couldn't, I mean, you know, we're drinking Champaign like crazy when we first got on the boat but the shift was sitting still but then yeah, that day it started moving and it's like, oh, my gosh. So I literally, I skip skip lunch and I went to the front desk and asked for something for motion and I apparently everyone was doing the same thing. I wasn't the only one. But, yeah, I sent the entire date in the, in my room, was beautiful room didn't, didn't do dinner, didn't do lunch, didn't do anything. I just, I was, yeah. It was not, it was not cool.

Oh, okay yeah my neighbor doesn't I, I'm not, I don't like to get dressed up you know with coat and all that hole shit and no that's what he told me. He said he took, I think a support code and he were maybe twice and yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah one oh, I got there fantastic.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, you don't have to do that, not on. No.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, a a shirt and just a shirt. Nice pans or whatever, that's more than fine. Right?
Customer: Well, that's what Vikey did I just wear a button shirt and, and like doctors, I don't wear a tie or in that stupid shit so I didn't know if region you know made to do that stuff. Did they do the stuff like king where they give you free Bere line with meals or do they make you pay?
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, gosh, no, they're all include, everything's included. Yeah, yeah. So, that's that, that's the beautiful thing about it. It's, yeah, it's a, it's a really nice nice cruise cruise line.
Customer: Oh, is it okay? Oh, shoot.
Customer: Yeah, okay.
Customer: Alright, I'll have to take a look and see what they got cause I, you know, Viking's good. But sometimes you want to see something a little difference for the hell of it. Cool. I know you guys always send an emails out about biking. I mean, the region sales like, upgrades and all sorts of stuff. Yup. Alright.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Right.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, yeah. Mm-hmm yeah, there's they're. Yeah, they are, they're really good so, yeah, I of.
Customer: Do they handle a, do they do air fair and conjunction with the cruise or is it more messing with it.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, yeah. And it's business class that they offer.
Customer: Okay, cause I yeah, neighbor of mine uses another cruise company and she said that using Viking air sucks compared to what the other cruise companies offer in terms of booking and prices and everything side just curious.
Agent (Pam Chavez): And you know, and in all reality, I'll tell you this. The what am I saying here at the.
Customer: Yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Air on almost any carrier that there's really no control that the companies have like region has no controller. They offer business class and they will give it to you but it may be all over the place because that's all that's available and, and, and you know the airlines Kevin they what sell $44 tickets at business, the lowest business class and then it goes up and up and up. So unfortunately it goes back to them where you know they have to charge more money for a business clap tickets that you want.
Customer: Mm-hmm.
Customer: Yeah, mm-hmm yeah, yeah.
Customer: Okay, okay.
Customer: Yup, no, they change it. Yes.
Customer: Yup, yup, yup. They get the right.
Customer: Yup, no, I hear you, yeah alright well well like I said that's what I'm trying to put together you know the South Africa gig with talk with you know conjunction with something over Europe so, I'm trying to figure out if I want to do a land to or if I want to do a river cruise or our notion cruiser I don't know what the shit don't want to do, so.
Agent (Pam Chavez): And stuff so.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Right.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Okay, well let me know.
Customer: Yup. Alright. No, I'm still working at, hey, does this one and I have another friend who wants to go to Africa and she said that she was looking at the abaci. And Kent, and she told me they were sold out and just for the shit of it, I went to their website and they're not sold out. So, I we have you, how do you compare it? Have you, do you know anybody that's done, ever cramping can't give me.
Agent (Pam Chavez): I've done a couple of Croy and account so did one South Africa with them and, and they're fantastic. I mean the hotels are like superb. I mean, they're really.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: Well I know they use that the one and only or something in Cape town, right? Is that the one they use? I know they use a fancy one. Yeah, I just didn't know how they rack and stack with and you know what, in relation to ta if it's basically the same thing or you know different, okay.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yes, I believe so. Yeah, mm-hmm mm-hmm.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Right.
Customer: Yeah, cause I know that if you go the N-K website, they have a price and then below it they have the add-on air fair, whereas tab just puts the whole freaking price, cause you got to do the air fair anyway. You can't, you know, get around Africa your own. So, yup. Yup. Alright, cool, sounds like you plan. Yup, thank you Pam, have a good weekend. Talk to you later. Bye.
