Alright those reservations have been confirmed and that theater in particular has assigned seating.

Never mind then. I am going to have to consult with my cousins if we would like to see the movie here since we all hate assigned seating.
assistant
Okay. So does that mean you would like me to cancel the reservations?
user
Yes please. I’m needing to know the other parties’ preference regarding the venue.
assistant
That is fine. The reservations are now canceled.
user
Thanks for all your help.
assistant
Have a wonderful evening.
