“We been, the spend a lot of that we can search but we're not, we may not find.”
Call LeAnne back within one business day with confirmation from Viking on the DV six cabin hold for February 29 and final pricing including the $100 biking passenger discount, so she can compare all available dates and make a booking decision.
Full analysis
What happened
LeAnne called to follow up on two Viking River Cruise quotes she had requested for 'In Search of the Northern Lights' itineraries. The agent Rose reviewed availability across multiple dates (January, February, and March 2024) and cabin categories, discovering that January 24 preferred cabin was sold out but February 29 and other dates had availability. LeAnne expressed concern that January 12 was too soon to plan, and that penthouse cabins were above budget. After discussing cabin location (DV six on deck three to minimize motion sensitivity), LeAnne agreed to let Rose hold the February 29 departure without obligation pending Viking confirmation of passenger discounts. Rose committed to calling back after contacting Viking directly.
Emotional read
LeAnne is engaged and methodical, working through logistics with practical concerns about timing and seasickness. She's collaborative with the agent, asking clarifying questions about cabin locations and pricing details. Her tone is steady and decision-focused rather than anxious or uncertain.
Emotional arc through the call
Remained steady and practical throughout—focused on logistics, pricing, and safety concerns rather than displaying emotional shifts.
How customer sees Pavlus
- neutral · customer mentioned quote tool did not properly record 'biking passenger' discount status—kept reverting to 'no' despite selecting 'yes'
- positive · accepted agent's offer to hold cabin without obligation and agreed to wait for callback after direct Viking contact
Process friction
- quote tool did not correctly capture or retain passenger discount eligibility (biking passenger status)
Value perception
Not explicitly stated, but LeAnne's willingness to hold a cabin through Pavlus rather than booking direct, and her deference to the agent's knowledge of availability and discounts, implies she values the agent's access to inventory and pricing intelligence.
