- Close to Departure restrictions
b) Length of stay pricing
In length of stay pricing (LOS), for every Arrival Date Maximum stay Prices are sent.Firstly, the LOS Prices get uploaded on Price Cache where the final price is calculated by considering special and other factors and then from there the final Prices are sent to Booking.com.
Example:
For 1st October,2022: 3 Nights Prices are configured as 350. So for 1st Oct Prices will be sent as:
-- 1 Night prices: 0
-- 2 Night Prices: 0
-- 3 Night prices: 350
LOS prices take time to get reflected at Booking.com website as the prices will first get reflected on ‘Price cache’ and then those Prices are Exported to Booking.comImport Reservations (Multiple rate types)
