“We're a little skeptic on you know, starting to do something now but we need to still go ahead and take our other trip.”
Send Mable a curated email with the three most relevant 8-day Danube itineraries (Vienna to Budapest preferred) for October, along with pricing and operator details; confirm if the Amadeus or Tauck option matches her original 'Mozart/concert hall' itinerary so she can decisively move forward with either the Oaxaca or European trip planning.
Full analysis
What happened
Mable Brown called following a Pavlus quote for a river cruise. She is interested in an October Danube itinerary starting in Vienna or Budapest with a Mozart/concert hall component, but lost the original email. She and her husband Bruce are planning multiple trips: an Oaxaca visit in January with cousins, followed by a multi-leg European trip in February involving a 4-day family visit in Stuttgart, then an 8-day Danube cruise (Vienna to Budapest), plus 2 nights in Budapest before flying home. She is uncertain about the original cruise operator and asked Rose to identify options and pricing. Rose began pulling together available itineraries and offered to hold space without obligation. The call ended with Rose agreeing to research and compile options for follow-up.
Emotional read
The customer is engaged and enthusiastic about European travel, speaking animatedly about multiple trip ideas and preferences. She shows some organizational frustration (lost emails, too many saved quotes) but remains positive and collaborative with the agent. She is detail-oriented and slightly indecisive, bouncing between options but always respectful and appreciative of Rose's help.
Emotional arc through the call
Customer remained consistently warm and appreciative throughout, showing slight frustration early about lost emails but brightening when Rose engaged actively with her complex itinerary ideas.
How customer sees Pavlus
- positive · appreciative of Rose calling her back and willingness to search for the lost itinerary: 'Okay, well that sounds really good'
- positive · trusting Rose's capability to book flights and handle logistics: 'we can always book you the flights from that area as well'
- neutral · no prior critique mentioned; customer appears to be new or in early exploratory stage with Pavlus
Process friction
- customer lost original quote email and had difficulty locating it among too many saved messages from travel agencies
Value perception
Not explicitly stated. Customer appears to view Pavlus as helpful in consolidating options and handling multi-leg coordination, but has not compared against direct booking or competitors.

Agent (Rose Morrissey): Hi mapel this is rose from pales travel. How are you? Customer: Very good. Hello rose. I'm doing fine. Agent (Rose Morrissey): That's good. Well, I'm calling because you sent in a quote. We sent you a quote for a river cruise I actually. Yeah, Daniel. Yeah, is there anything I can help you with or. Customer: Yeah. Customer: Mm-hmm. Customer: Well, we're still trying to pin down a time we would like to try that. There was one that I saw and I can't find it and I don't know if that's the one. It's the one that starts in anna and it ends in Boota pest. Customer: And it's, yeah. And it's one. And it wasn't that it was in October, like early October, mid October and it was one that was you were gonna go see a concert hall. They were, it was about, it was a little musical, Mozart and, and, and all that kind of stuff, it was kind of me and so we were interested in it but I lost the email or at least I can't find it. I tried to save all the travel agency and the others that they send me and I guess I saved too many that I just thought. Okay, I've got to start deleting some but no we're not interested in, you know, going here going there. But it's yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Anna and Ana. Okay, okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay, Vian. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah, yes. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yes, okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Let me, let me check that out for you and see if there's any availability for October and I'll just hold it without any obligations and then we just go from there. Customer: So. Customer: Okay, well that sounds really good and you know, this is for, you know, next year in October we're a little skeptic on you know, starting to do something now but we need to still go ahead and take our other trip. We're thinking about going to Wahaka but I'm keeping an eye just to make sure so far it looks okay to go down there for a week with my cousins and, and so after that's gonna be like January, February and so we were thinking that we would love to go back to Europe. Now here's the, here's the kicker, if we go to Vienna like fly in there. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay, and. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yup, mm-hmm. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Well, no, I understand. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Uh-huh, yeah. Customer: We want to do it through stud guard again. In other words we're going to go visit family again and then from stud guard. So I'm even telling Bruce that I said, you know what I said if we fly from stud guard to Vienna then there might be more accessible hours. It won't be like, oh, we're dragging after a long flight. I said and not only that will be received. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yes. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Right. Customer: You know, there'll be a little card saying the Browns or whatever and because we would be coming from stud guard and I would imagine, it's like a, what, two hour flight or something or less. I don't know. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yes, yes, yes, yes, okay, okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): You can even do it, you can even do the train if you want that experience. Yeah, but hey, you can fly. We can always, we can always book you the flights from that area as well. Customer: Oh, a train. Oh, well. Customer: Yeah, I think maybe it's better if we fly only because I don't wanna lug a luggage around, you know, going into the train and running with it and all that, I can't do that. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah, on the, on the Tran. Oh, yes, I saw all of that and I'm going, oh, my goodness, that's a big piece of luggage too. Customer: So, so we would really like to do that trip and you know, we're looking at October also you know, we kind of wanted to where it's not cold but I mean, you still have to wear a little jacket and whatever. I don't, we don't mind a little coolness is what I wanna tell you. We don't mind, so. Agent (Rose Morrissey): On the ra. Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Oh. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah, I was just in Europe for October, I mean, last month, and it was beautiful. We went south of France and it was, it was beautiful. Yeah, yeah, so, so, let me. Customer: Oh. Customer: Oh, how nice! Oh, how lovely. Well, we're interested in that. And I, and I don't remember what the name of the boat was or you know, the company boat. I don't think it was un world, I think it was someone else. I don't know if it was ar, it was cause it could have been tap, it could have been, I don't know not nard, or Conrad or something like that. I don't know, I don't, I don't remember if it was I just, I wanna say that it had an unusual name. I don't think I've ever seen but well we'll see if you think you can find out which ones are the ones that are going there and you know, what's the price looking like or what's the. Agent (Rose Morrissey): It was towed, was it pal? Yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Uh-huh. Yup. Yup. Customer: Or anything and the other one that we had thought about and you know, like I said we would like to do that one, you know, visit more and then we thought about also like Italy and port, you know, just doing around those areas. But we have to look at the, at the ones that you send us to see, I've seen a couple of them that was the Greek islands with Italy. And what was the other one I think there was like portal Spain or somewhere. It ended up in London or somewhere I don't know. But anyway. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Oh, yeah, that, yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): So those are the ocean cruises. Okay, let me, I think I know which one you're looking at cause I see the blue Dane of twelve days and it does have prod practice laba Regensburg Ianna and put a pap a passion. Salberg. Customer: Yeah, and I don't know. Customer: Okay, and we've been to strong for, right. Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): And, and Indiana day. Oh, uh-oh, okay, that's where? Customer: Well, yeah. Didn't we were there on that was off the Riner am I wrong? Agent (Rose Morrissey): You were on castles along the line. Yeah, this is on the Dane. Customer: The Ryan river. Okay. Okay. Customer: Okay, and now the one that I saw started in and it either went either Vienna or Boota pest and I'm not sure but it may have been eight days, so, I don't know. It could be nine. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah, here's an eight days. I found an eight days, so it's put a push Viana Salberg lava durn stay and then Lynds. Customer: Oh. Customer: Oh, now I remember Bruce told me, okay, let's say we do four days and stud guard do the Donna Bo river from Vienna to Boota pest and he was thinking about that we stay maybe two nights and Boota pest before we leave. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Uh-huh. Customer: So, I think that's why I was looking at the eight day one because that'll give us time for there and then eight, and then two additional days and of course, we don't count the flight time or anything just, you know, where we're at but we thought about maybe two days. So, anyway, that's just kind of an idea that we have right now. So well just. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah, mm-hmm yup. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Mm-hmm okay. Well, let me, let me just I'll send you this one here that the hard of the Dane, but I think that's the one that we sent to you for April and it's eight days bia to put a pass. Customer: Okay. Customer: Okay. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay, and then there's another one that starts in prog but that's twelve days, you said eight days. Customer: Yeah, because we're trying to split it up with four days with a family there, you know just four days with them, you know will arrive there and then maybe two days and boot the pest. We'd like for it to end, and boot a pest and we can fly from there back to the states. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Yeah. Agent (Rose Morrissey): Okay. Alright, let me see what I can put together for you and then we'll go from there. Okay. Customer: Okay, sounds really good. Thank you rose. Thank you for calling. Alright, then, uh-huh bye.
