Override minimum stay as the date approaches

[Christer Fernstrom]

I have set minimum stay parameters for the various seasons, and for example have defined minimum 2 days for weekends during the spring season. However, as the date approaches I would like to allow one night stays for the next two weekends. Can this be done?

Hi Christer,

It can be done only manually. The quickest way may be to create a season that covers two weekends. Add the season at the top of you rates. Create a 1 night minimum stay rule for this season in Bookings > Booking Rule. Then change the dates of the season as weekends approach.

Hi Stacy,
And then I guess that booking rule should be positioned at the top of the minimum-stay rules, right?

Hi Christer,

Yes, try to put it higher to define the priority.

Hi John,
Thanks. Yes that works. I have also written a plugin that changes the dates for the one-night season automaticlly via a cron job, so this now works exactly as I wanted.
