person(s) Explanation: I don't know where this comes from. It seems to have a long history in the travel industry, where it is used for "passenger(s)". Not surprisingly, given the connection between the two industries, it has also invaded the hotel trade, where, of course, it can't refer to passengers, as hotels generally are not a means of transport. |
