Seasonal Premiums

Some dates sell out — Christmas, New Year, Easter, a local festival. A seasonal premium is the extra you decide to charge for travelling then, without touching a single supplier rate.

A premium on the selling price

The premium is a percentage of the whole selling price, after your margin — it never touches costs. That is different from a hotel or cruise rate period, which is what the supplier charges you on a date and is already in their rate. A rate period is the supplier’s contract; a premium is your own decision on top.

It applies wherever a price is made: the B2B Calculator, and every B2C quote — saved from the Quote Builder, created from an itinerary, or edited. The quote shows it as its own line, with the season’s name and percentage, and the selling price includes it. Your margin is reported without it. An edit reprices it from the trip’s start date; the client’s PDF shows the total.

Setting up a season

Open Settings → Seasonal Premiums (the Demand calendar; admins and managers):

  1. Add a season — a name (e.g. “New Year”) and a premium between 0 and 200%.
  2. Give it one or more dated windows: From, To and an optional label (e.g. “New Year 2026/27”). The dates carry the year, so add next year’s window when you know it.
  3. Edit changes the premium or the name; windows and seasons can be removed.

Which trips it applies to

  • The departure date decides. A trip that leaves before a window and runs into it is an ordinary departure.
  • Overlapping windows — the higher premium wins; they are never added together.
  • The date you quote does not matter: a Christmas trip quoted in July still takes the December premium.
Keep a broad “Winter peak” at a small premium and a short “New Year” window at a higher one: departures in the New Year window take the higher premium, the rest of winter the lower.
