Market Dashboards - Booking Curves

The Market-Level Booking Curves section lets you visualize how Revenue, Occupancy, Average Daily Rate (ADR), and Revenue Per Available Room (RevPAR) are building up over time across the broader market. These charts use the familiar Days Until Stay Date (Days Until Completion) format on the X-axis—ranging from more than 360 days before check-in all the way to the stay date—so you can observe how performance evolves as bookings come in.

Why This Matters

This feature allows you to:

  • Benchmarking Against the Market
    Compare your own listings’ pacing (in Performance Analytics) with how the market is booking (in Market Dashboards). This allows you to see if you're ahead, behind, or aligned with broader trends.
  • Strategic Planning Based on Real Market Behavior
    Use the evolving data to make smarter decisions on pricing, availability, and stay restrictions. For example, if you see market-wide ADRs holding steady until 20 days before check-in, you might decide to delay your price drops to capture more revenue.

Reviewing the Chart

  1. Open your Market Dashboard from your PriceLabs account.
  2. Select the Market Dashboard you wish to review
  3. Scroll down to the section labeled Booking Curves, where you will find the 4 charts.
  4. You can use the date range selector to switch views:
    1. Current Months (default): Select one or more upcoming months to see how metrics are pacing.

    2. Custom Dates: Choose a specific month.

    3. The graphs will automatically refresh to reflect your selected date range.

This section is modeled after the booking curve charts in the Performance Analytics module but now reflects market-level data instead of your portfolio alone—providing a powerful new layer of benchmarking.
