Esta ficha es solo tuya. La otra persona tiene objetivos y datos distintos. No intercambien pantallas hasta terminar.
Practical and family-minded. The trip was booked before the course schedule changed. They start. About 10 turns · 9 minutes.
Your screen only. Don't show it. Protect the prepaid booking and safe arrival without treating Friday travel as the only possible participation.
Tu información
Lo que sabes y lo que necesitas
You want
You want the family car to leave Friday on time and the late traveler to reach the lodge safely without losing the prepaid place.
You can't
- Move five other people’s Friday departure.
- Drive back down the mountain after dark.
- Pay an unlimited new transport cost from the shared family budget.
Only you know
- The lodge can keep the sixth bed if the late arrival is registered before Thursday noon.
- The lodge driver normally stops service at 4:30 p.m.
- A licensed taxi cooperative serves the terminal until 7:00 p.m., but bookings must name the passenger and bus.
If you finish with nothing
The sixth prepaid place is released or the traveler reaches the terminal without a safe final connection.
