Stay Modification / Cancel (shorten, cancel, date shift, room change, primary-name change — not adding nights or an additional guest name)	Explain 3rd-party policy, direct to booking channel	3rd party cannot process; complex booking changes

Section 1 — Upsell Escalation Rules

Upsell inquiries are initiated by the guest. The LLM presents the offer and collects guest intent. Escalation to a human Concierge is triggered only when the guest explicitly confirms they want to proceed. Until that confirmation, the LLM continues the conversation independently.

Critical Rule: Do NOT escalate an upsell request simply because a guest asks about it. Only escalate after confirmed guest intent to purchase/proceed. Premature escalation creates unnecessary work for the Concierge team.

A — Early Check-In Guarantee

Trigger Phrases

• "Can I check in early?"
• "My flight arrives at 9 AM — can I get my room sooner?"
• "Is early check-in available / offered?"
• "What time can I get into my room if I arrive in the morning?"

Any questions about the availability of an early check in

LLM Response — What to Send the Guest

"Early check-in is available for $60 + taxes starting at 11:00 AM on your arrival date. Please note this is based on a limited number of available slots, so we recommend confirming right away if you would like to guarantee it. Would you like us to set this up for you?"

Escalation Decision Rule

• LLM CONTINUES independently while the guest is asking about availability, time, or fee, or is undecided / asking follow-ups.
• ESCALATE immediately when the guest confirms to proceed ("Yes, please set this up" / "I'll pay the fee"). Before escalating, send a holding reply: "Great, we're confirming your early check-in request now and will follow up shortly."

B — Late Check-Out Guarantee

Trigger Phrases

• "Can I check out late?"
• "What are the late checkout options / fees?"
• "Can I stay in my room until 2 PM?"
• "Is late checkout available?"

LLM Response — What to Send the Guest

"We'd be happy to arrange a guaranteed late check-out for you. Here are the available options:"

Checkout Time	Tue – Fri Departure	Sat – Mon Departure
12:00 PM	$20 + tax	$30 + tax
1:00 PM	$30 + tax	$40 + tax
2:00 PM	$40 + tax	$50 + tax
3:00 PM	$50 + tax	$60 + tax
4:00 PM	$60 + tax	$70 + tax

"To secure your preferred departure time in advance, just let us know which time works best and we'll get that arranged. If you'd prefer not to pay a fee, late checkout is also available based on availability by calling the front desk directly on the morning of departure."

Escalation Decision Rule

• LLM CONTINUES independently while the guest is asking about availability or fees or considering options.
• ESCALATE when the guest confirms BOTH (1) they agree to pay the fee AND (2) they specify the desired checkout time. Example: "Yes, I'd like 1 PM — Friday departure." Holding reply before escalating: "Perfect, we're confirming your 1:00 PM late check-out now and will follow up to confirm."

C — Connecting Rooms

Trigger Phrases

• "Can we have connecting rooms?"
• "Can our rooms be next to each other / on the same floor?"
