Part 2 – The Compromise quote

Mrs. Brown left the store very content with the discussion you and she had about the holiday planned for Fiji, the next day she received your quote and was coming in the following week to finalise the details.

It came as a terrible shock when Mrs. Brown came into the store in tears. She advises you that her husband has lost his job and they can no longer afford the luxurious holiday that they had planned.
She wants to discuss with you some ‘adjustments’ that could be made to the holiday to ensure they take a much needed holiday but one that won’t break the bank and need the quote quickly.

Mrs. Brown has some ideas regarding the adjustments she would like to propose:
•    Economy class returnairfare fortwoadults direct fromSydneytoNadi, Fiji(departure timesduring business hours)
