CTA – Closed to Arrival

Feb 20, 2020


What does CTA or Closed to Arrival mean?


When CTA aka “closed to arrival” is set for a date, a guest can not book this date if their stay begins on this date.

If their stay includes this date, but does not begin on it – then it would be bookable when the customer is searching for available stays.

An example would be if you only wanted arrivals allowed on Friday, you would set the other days of the week to CTA, this would prevent any arrivals on days other than Friday.
