2) The General Manager called the Front Office Manager (FOM), Mr. Saiful, and the Duty Manager (DM), Puan Alia, to fix the situation. They called the HQ to ask for permission to release the discounted price on the website, and the HQ admitted to doing so because the month in which the low rate is set is a school holiday month, and they want to attract people to come and visit the resort.

2) We have been requested to attend ChatGpt usage training with the Head of Department IT/Housekeeping, Mr. Melvin, so that we can use it correctly.

2) Initially, it was a bit difficult and there was a lot of confusion because of playing with many numbers, but after doing it many times, I was able to understand well. The daily pick-up report needs to be sent every day to the superiors from various branches of Berjaya Hotel & Resort to see and check the available data.

2) The accessible data is significant since the report includes information on the number of rooms sold each month as well as the total amount of income received by the resort on each day of the month. Also, the report displays the number of rooms booked by guests.

2) Every day, it is required to check bookings the day before so that no bookings are missed that are not keyed in the Opera system.

3) Check the guest's name on Site Minder according to the date of check-in to see if the booking has not been typed in or if it has been overlooked.

4) Site minder is a full system in which every time a guest makes a booking through a travel agent, the booking is automatically entered into Site minder, and Site minder also has a credit card that the reception staff requires.

2) It is important to take into account the price of the room package that includes meals, such as normal (Bed & Breakfast only), half board (Breakfast, Lunch, and Tea time), and full board (Breakfast, Lunch, Tea time, Snack, and Dinner).

2) It was difficult to decorate the candles in the proper shape as well as light all of the candles, and we were observed by people who occurred to pass by the area. We sat in a circle of candles to prevent them from going out for an hour. After an hour, we let the guests snap photos in the circle.

2) This daily pick-up report shows how many rooms were sold and how much revenue the resort generated in a single day. The following day, the statistics will immediately pick up and rise in comparison to the previous day.

2) Sometimes there is a situation when the guest wants to come on the selected date but there is no room available; we will propose that they choose another date in the same month and explain it thoroughly to them, however, there is no severe problem encountered with the guest following the description.

2) Ensure that there are no errors in keying in the room type and the discount rate specified by the travel agent.

3) After completing the key-in booking, enter the Site minder system to print a credit card that the receptionist will refer to later.

2) Mr. Saiful also described how guests might cancel bookings at the last minute or a few days before their arrival. Berjaya Hotel & Resort has a cancellation policy that requires guests to cancel without being charged three days before the booking date, however, if a guest cancels at the last minute, we must charge the price of one night and provide evidence of the cancellation policy to guests in order to avoid confusion.

2) Right front of me is also a booking paper, which I need to type into the Opera system.

3) Upon finishing the booking and answering the guest's phone, I'm going to support my colleagues in responding to certain emails that need to be addressed.

2) Ms. Nana and the instructor provided excellent assistance on the examination trip, thus there was no excessive pressure. Everything went smoothly.

2) Direct booking normally asks guests to pay half of the amount (deposit) to reserve their reservation.

2) The reservation follows up on this type of problem by calling or emailing the guest to confirm whether or not they will come to the resort, for example, if they do not show up, the reservation will be charged for one night because that is Berjaya Hotel & Resorts' policy.

2) Room decoration will be done by housekeeping.

3) The habit of decorating the room merely without involving the cake or the selection of the food menu will be charged at an inexpensive price to the guest.

2) Whenever the guest booked through a travel agent, we will instruct them to cancel their confirmation with the travel agent first, and then the reservation team will cancel the reservation in the Opera system.

3) However, if a guest makes a direct booking with a team reservation, we will cancel it directly, with the a condition that the cancellation be made three days before the check-in date and that supporting documentation be provided if cancelling by phone or email.

2) The reservation team sent Ms. Jean an email including proof of the WhatsApp chat between the reservation staff and the recreation staff, as well as a detailed explanation of the problems that transpired.

3) At the end, Ms. Jean settled the matter by discussing the open water course with the agent again and asking the agency to reschedule the date or do something other than the open water course because there were no specialists available at the time.

2) If the guest wishes to add one night, the reservation team will increase the price according to the room type, as well as the price for the third person (including children), and if the guest requests an extra bed, the price will also increase, however, the reservation team will not provide a discount price to the guest because this is a fixed price.

2) All of the data in the report is extremely important since it shows the total number of rooms sold as well as the income earned by Berjaya Tioman Resort in a day, month, and year.

2) Mrs. Cecilia will focus on how the reservation and receptionists speak when answering the phone from customers, as a pleasant and soft intonation will offer guests a positive impression.

3) If we as trainees are unable to answer inquiries from guests we will first consult with our superior before transferring the call to him. This is because some information is still being learned and understood.

2) It must also be assured that there are no inaccuracies in the daily pick-up report because they will interfere with all of the data that has been manually entered in, and if there is an issue, the reservation team must manually fix all of the data.

2) Typically, guests prefer to snorkel; we will ensure that swimming specialists are accessible on the date of their choice, however, most guests can snorkel successfully, with the exception of inclement weather, when we do not allow guests to swim.

3) When guests have specific questions about snorkelling or diving and would like a more detailed explanation, we will direct them to the recreation department because they are more knowledgeable in this area. The majority of guests prefer to contact the recreation department if they have questions about the activities they wish to participate in while at the resort.

2) Watched a receptionist trainee, Seri, working on a manifest, which is a report they need to create about guest arrival times at the resort (check in and check out).

3) It's extremely difficult and complicated for beginners to understand how to manually construct a manifest (report) because it must be segmented according to guest check-in and check-out periods. This is also attributed to the Berjaya Tioman resort hosting 30 or more guests in one day.

2) It is difficult because one grouping is estimated to have 20-30 persons, and often two or three groups visit the resort in the same month. Mr. Saiful advised us not to make mistakes when booking for grouping since they would have an adverse impact on the resort’s revenues.

2) The reception team will provide a form for guests to fill out, requesting the date and time of their check-out. This information is necessary as the team arranges transportation to the jetty through a porter (baggage handler), a complimentary service offered to all guests for both check-in and check-out.

2) Reply email and answering phone call from guests.

3) Whenever dealing with guest bookings that are not accepted by us via email, we will ask guests to contact the travel agent again and ask them to resend the email to the reservation team because the reservation team will not make guest bookings made through the travel agent if there is no supporting booking material indicating that the guest bookings have been confirmed.

2) Learning the way to answer guests' phones with good and great sentences.

3) Mrs. Cecilia wanted to focus on how the reservation and receptionists speak when answering the phone from customers, as a pleasant and soft intonation will offer guests a positive impression.

2) All of the data that must be entered into the daily pick-up report is dependent on the data in the History & Forecast report, therefore before creating the daily pick-up report, print out the History & Forecast report to serve as reference.

2) Each department (reservation and reception) must emphasise the issues that plague and interfere with job responsibilities, causing some activities to become pending and unmanageable.

2) When the reservation team does not complete the form, the guest service officer, F&B, and pastry team will not be aware that the guest has requested a cake.

3) A cake order must be submitted at least one day before the guest's arrival at the resort, and we also offer a service to deliver the cake to the guest's room, as well as sing and celebrate with the guest.
