“we wanna cancel the Viking Alaska one...we're thinking about that Africa safari where we want to call it”
Next best action

Full analysis
What happened

Kevin called to discuss canceling a September 2025 Viking Alaska cruise he and his wife Carrie had booked. He explained they now want to pivot to a South Africa safari tour departing October 3rd with Tauck, which the agent's sister is already organizing with a group of 18 people (family and friends). Kevin independently confirmed details on the Tauck website during the call and expressed strong interest in joining, but hesitated about adding himself and Carrie without explicit approval from the group organizer. He asked about free hotel offers, airfare costs (estimating ~$7,000 business class from Reno), and stopover options (London, Frankfurt, etc.). The agent agreed to check with her sister about space and get back to Kevin via text.

Emotional read

Kevin is casual, collaborative, and pragmatic—occasionally using mild profanity but in a friendly manner. He's genuinely excited about the Africa trip but cautious about imposing on an existing group dynamic. His tone stays upbeat and solution-oriented throughout; he defers to the agent's relationship with her sister without frustration or pressure.

Emotional arc through the call

Kevin remained steady and collaborative throughout—slightly more animated when discussing Africa safari appeal, but consistently cautious and respectful about group dynamics; no emotional shift.

How customer sees Pavlus
  • neutral · No direct comment about Pavlus, the agent, or the agency. Interaction was informal and relationship-based (agent appears to be a personal connection through family).
Value perception

Kevin did not explicitly comment on Pavlus's value. The call was transactional and relationship-driven, with Kevin relying on the agent's personal connection to the tour organizer rather than agency expertise.

Customer: Oh, okay, yeah.
Customer: Right.
Customer: Yeah.

Customer: Okay. Yeah we talked to some people when we went to northern Spain and it was a lady and a guy who they're not married but they travel ag. And they said they told us she got to go, I mean, you know they just said you gotta do it once in your life. So, so October 3rd is that what the, okay, cause I just went to the tach website. Yeah and it looks and how many people's your sister got hooked up.

Agent (Pam Chavez): Hold on just a second. Yeah. Hold on just a second. I thought that was sixteen or maybe it's 14624681012141618, oh, shit, sorry. Excuse me, eighteen people.
Customer: No worries. Dil. No, these a, these are family and friends you said or?
Agent (Pam Chavez): So that?
Agent (Pam Chavez): Is yeah, like there's a few there, I mean, you know, a few family members, my two sisters are going and their sister-in-law and then the rest are just friends Betty. My, my sister sister-in-law Betty is, I mean, she's just told one person, another, another person tells another person and it's kinda like, it just keeps on building, I'm kinda curious though, so, that's eighteen if I put you on this group, if that's, I mean, I'd have to, you know, make sure it's okay with her and stuff, but that would get you pretty close.
Customer: Yeah, okay.
Customer: Damn, yeah.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: Okay, get snow balls.
Customer: Yeah, let me well, yeah, yeah, I didn't, yeah, we wanna, you were thinking about it. I don't know if I wanna book right now if you want to check with her, that's cool. But we definitely wanna cancel the with a Viking Alaska one that we wanna cancel just, just cause we want to leave. Yes. It's like it leaves.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Okay, let me find that. Oh, there it is. Ryan on the 14th of August.
Customer: Yes, I think that's it, yeah, that was it. Yeah, cause we would get gonna go to Denali and, and I'm not worried about the $50 deposit or whatever they have we put on.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Mm-hmm.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah. Well, it's 40485 by the way.
Customer: Yeah, by the time they do their silly. Yes, it's funny how they do that. They, I, they, you know, yeah, we just, they gave us $300 shipboard. Credit and then you know, you book tours, you probably know this stuff biking it instead of giving you $300 back when you get on a ship. They put it in your account and it came out to like $290.10 or some shit, they take you 3.3, even whatever. Yeah, yeah, so yeah, if we can cancel that Alaska one for a 2025. And like I said, I'm not worried about the silly deposit cause when we booked that, we were on the expedition and then the guy gave us some credit, he goes take the credit and I don't care if you cancel it or not. Okay.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Right.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Agent (Pam Chavez): They yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Less than that. Mm-hmm oh, yeah, oh, yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Okay.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Okay, so, I'm gonna ask her if it's okay to add you to the group if you, if you guys decide to.
Customer: Yeah, so.
Customer: Yeah, yeah. I don't want to get in the middle of.
Customer: Yeah, and what's is to, are they still offer the free hotel and advance?
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yes. At this point they are, yes. The gift of time. Mm-hmm.
Customer: Okay. Yes. So, we, you, okay, now here's a question. I know. Getting over the sucks. Have you even looked at their airfare? I know but I, you can, no, I always play the game at looking at 2024 cause it's kinda be the same but it's like, oh, I know.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, it does. Well, I can't yet, not until the Thanksgiving time.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Right.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, yeah, business class is going to be what $7,000 a piece maybe I would get guess.
Customer: Yeah. And you know, from Reno it takes like 38 hours. I don't know what Albuquerque if they got to go to like, Dallas or dinner or whatever the hell they do. But yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Oh, yeah. Well, I think I don't know if, but like my sister and my sister's, I know, I'm gonna do their airfare and they always fly business as well. But I think, I I mean, kinda sorta I'm gonna maybe suggest perhaps overnight in London. I mean, cause that's along enough flight to get to London, and then another, what, eight hours, nine hours or ten hours whatever to get to Janis or wherever it starts.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: Yeah.
Customer: That's.
Customer: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right.
Customer: Yeah, no, I was looking at that too. Or you know, some people fly to blonder or frankford or some shit and just get a hotel for a day. And then exactly rather than get, you, do they charge extra for all that. Or can can you combine it into 11 ticket? I don't know how that works.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, or strada or something. Yeah.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, it, it'll be one ticket, it just be considered to stop over sometimes they charge sometimes they don't.
Customer: Yeah. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Yeah. Does, does Tak offer kind of, a, yeah, go ahead.
Agent (Pam Chavez): Yeah, so it's it leave.
Agent (Pam Chavez): It goes into Capetown end and Johanns so take a look at the me to send you the details of this one.
