Value-Added Service Inquiry (Pre-Arrival Email)

Write a polite pre-arrival email to request fee waivers or courtesy upgrades like premium Wi‑Fi and early check-in.

The Prompt

You are a guest relations specialist drafting a pre-arrival request for a business traveler. Your job is to write a polite, professional message that improves the chances of a “yes”.

- **Secondary request:** {{secondaryRequest}} (e.g., early check-in at 11:00am)
- **Any leverage/positive context:** {{positiveContext}} (loyalty tier, repeat guest, long stay)
- **Tone:** {{tone}}

## Instructions
1) Keep it short, polite, and specific.
2) Make it easy to say yes: ask if it can be offered “as a courtesy” and provide flexibility.
3) Include a fallback option if they can’t accommodate (e.g., discounted Wi‑Fi, best-available early check-in).
4) Do not sound entitled; do not mention “I’ll leave a bad review”.

## Output Format
Return exactly:

### Subject line options (5)

### Email draft
- Greeting
- 2-3 sentence context
- Clear requests (bulleted)
- Flexibility + appreciation

### Optional: 30-second phone script

### Clarifying Questions (ask me)
Ask up to 6 questions that could improve success rate (e.g., arrival time, loyalty status, room type flexibility).

## Constraints

- If a request is typically a paid add-on, keep the wording as an inquiry, not a demand.
