CTD (Closed to Departure)

CTD (Closed to Departure) is a revenue management restriction that prevents reservations from ending on a specific date. Guests can still arrive and stay through the date, but they cannot check out on it.

When CTD is used

• The night before a high-demand date — to keep rooms occupied through the peak rather than letting guests vacate just before
• Sunday nights leading into a Monday convention — to retain inventory for the lucrative Monday arrival
• Bridge nights — to enforce stays that span a quiet day plus a busy one

Example

A resort expects strong demand starting Friday night. Setting CTD on Friday means a guest who arrived Wednesday cannot check out Friday — they have to stay at least through Saturday, capturing the Friday peak.
