[ Overview ]
To use this feature, a subscription to AirHost ONE HMS (Premium Plan) is required.
The “Dynamic Minimum Stay Rule” is a feature that automatically updates the minimum number of nights required for a booking based on the number of days remaining until the check-in date.
💡As shown in the image above, if your rate plan has a minimum stay of two days or more, you
can allow short-term stays of one night for last-minute reservations, allowing you to avoid missing out on sales opportunities.
