Vacation request lifecycle — implementation note

The vacation lifecycle repair is implemented and verified in a local server Release build on 9 November 2026. The database migration and server deployment are separate rollout steps. The player-facing article should be updated after the server deployment is confirmed. The current base-fare formulas are unchanged.

Verification: 64 focused lifecycle, destination-code and TripAdvisor-consumer regression cases, plus eight integration cases using a disposable database. These cover family generation, expiry, return reservations, database mappings and boarding/cancellation conflicts.

Proposed player-reference text after deployment

Vacation requests have a limited waiting period. Most colonists wait three to seven days; some wait longer, up to a maximum of thirty days. Families share a waiting deadline. When an unstarted outward request expires, it disappears from passenger availability, and the colonists wait fourteen days before making another holiday request.

Expiry applies to outward holiday requests while the party is still at home. It does not remove passengers already aboard, cancel a party that has begun travelling, or remove a request to return home. After arrival, holiday duration follows the party’s available leave. Family members return together after everyone has arrived and completed their stay.

TripAdvisor considers transport access as well as destination attractions. Recent long waits and expired requests reduce interest in a destination, while timely completed journeys improve access. Recent experiences gradually lose their influence. Service on the particular route matters, and colonists may postpone travelling if suitable destinations are poorly served.

The Player Portal passenger matrix shows requests still available for transport. A pilot’s passenger reputation and available accommodation continue to determine which passengers can board.
