Contract hotels for next season

Rates, room allotments and release dates agreed, signed and loaded before sales open.

  1. List the hotels and room numbers needed by date
  2. Check last season's sales and guest reviews for each hotel
  3. Negotiate rates, meal plans and child prices
  4. Agree release dates for unsold rooms. Most people forget this: Rooms not released by the agreed date are often charged in full
  5. Get signed contracts with cancellation terms
  6. Approve each contract (Head of product signs off)
  7. Load rates and allotments into the booking system
  8. Check loaded prices against the signed contract
