Closed to Arrivals

Définition

Closed to Arrival (CTA) is a capacity control restriction that prevents guests from checking in on a specific arrival date. However, reservations that begin before the restricted date and continue through it are still allowed. This tactic is used to protect high-demand nights and optimize longer-stay booking.

Comment l'utiliser

Revenue managers implement CTA when they anticipate high occupancy due to ongoing stays but want to avoid one-night or low-value arrivals. It ensures that the remaining inventory is reserved for guests who add more overall value, such as multi-night bookings.

Formule

Decisions to use CTA are based on: Forecasted occupancy, Demand patterns, booking pace, stay length optimization and event and holiday calendars.
