MinLOS Revenue management methods

Length-of-stay controls (MinLOS, CTA, CTD)

Controls on stay length and arrival/departure dates.

Formula

close a booking to sale if its nights < MinLOS(date) or it arrives / departs on a closed date

How to read the metric

For resorts with programmes (7–21 nights) these controls matter more than the rate: they protect peak dates from short stays.

New Year dates: MinLOS of 5 nights.
