Maximum advance restriction for Web Booking Engine
Use case:
We want to offer a last-minute rate in our web booking engine to increase and stimulate a last-minute pickup. This rate should ONLY display for dates that fall between a maximum advance period of 7 days.
Existing restrictions can be set up to affect the arrival date, however cannot limit the departure date. (rate-specific)
It would be useful to have this option within the restriction options.
Work-around:
To achieve the above scenario, is only possible using maximum advance and maximum length restrictions for each night individually. In our case we want to offer a last-minute rate maximum 7 days in advance, requiring a new group rate, 7 dependable rates and 7 different restrictions for each of the 7 rates that represent the number of nights booked in advance.
Example
LM1 (Max adv 1 - Max length 6)
LM2 (Max adv 2 - max length 5)
LM3 (Max adv 3 - max length 4)
