Lead Time

Lead time is the number of days between when a guest books and when they stay. Short lead times mean last-minute demand, long lead times mean planned travel.

Why it matters

Lead time distribution tells you how aggressive your pricing curve should be. A market with mostly 30-day lead times needs different pricing logic than one with 3-day lead times. Markets shift — pricing engines track the shift in real time.
