Try this
- Read the provider’s current cancellation and transfer terms before buying.
- Agree on what each person wants to do if the other cannot attend and how any nonrecoverable cost is handled. Keep those choices specific to this booking.
A worked example
“If one of us cancels, should the other still go?”
An invented example to adapt, not a real exchange or a script you have to follow.
Before you leave it here
Check actual booking terms rather than inventing a refund expectation.
