Revenue Management Glossar

Verweigerungen 

Definition

Denials refer to booking requests that are not converted into reservations because the hotel is unable to accommodate the guest—either due to a lack of available inventory or because the requested rate or product is not offered at the time. Unlike cancellations, denials represent missed demand, often during high-compression periods.

Wie man es benutzt

Revenue managers track Denials to understand demand patterns, optimize pricing, and refine inventory controls. Analyzing Denials helps hoteliers identify whether they are leaving revenue on the table or setting barriers that deter valuable business.

Formel

Denials are typically reported as: Denial Volume = Number of unsuccessful booking requests due to unavailability or price mismatch
