Booking Abuse!

Peedee, where have you got the cancelation figures, or are you just looking at the late availability site,as I cannot find anywhere else on the cc website that actually gives the ammount of pitches that each site has available, and that is very much subject to as said ,if pitches become available, and not just late cancelations

What is clearly important, in this debate, is the number that are resold taken over the year as a whole. If the majority are resold, there is little incentive for the CC to introduce different, or more complexed booking practices. Some of which would have a significant cost to introduce. I would like to think that the CC have computed all of this and that is why they are not advocating any changes. Unfortunately, I think it unlikely we will ever have access to enough data for us to confirm or reject this assumption.

Its the differnece between the days availablity which gives the cancellation figures and between the 6th and early this morning that was 486 nights over the coming weekend.

I don't diagree with this Steve but how much more could the Club sell if the weekends were not blocked for those wanting a longer break which included the weekend?

..But where did you find how many pitches are available for instance today?as on booking it only shows a site has availability not how many are available ,except on late availability  site which is Fri to Sun

That is a fair point and of course one the club would have no information on, unless they were prepared to trial a different system.

Ok, for more clarity JVB

Its the difference between the days availablity on Friday, Saturday and Sunday on the 11th 12th and 13th March which gives the cancellation figures and between the 6th and early this morning that was 486 nights cancelled over the coming weekend.

That is not what  LA shows it just show sites with availability not what have been cancelled,

just re-read Peedees post where he explains how he got the 'net cancellations' from the change in availability taken at two different snapshots....

From March 4th availability is increasing week on week due to all the sites gradually opening for Easter, some pitches will have been booked earlier and the remainder are now becoming visible as late availability. When the sites are closed the available pitches aren't visible in LA. This would indicate an increase in availability, not cancellations? (Or am I going round the bend?!)
