- Analysis of reservation lead times for popular pensions suggests the recommended booking time is 2 weeks before the vacation date
- Peak season for pensions is from July 26 to August 6; if seeking cost-effectiveness, alternative dates are recommended
Trip Eleven Co., Ltd., a company specializing in pension data (CEOs Kihoon Son and Bokkyung Han, hereinafter Trip Eleven), released a popular pension reservation guide for this summer season on the 26th.
According to Trip Eleven, the guide released this time reflects recent issues from reservation platforms based on their own data analysis results and was distributed to help users have a regret-free summer vacation.
Trip Eleven's analysis recommends making reservations at least two weeks in advance based on vacation schedules for weekend bookings at popular pensions. According to Trip Eleven's data, the monthly reservation lead time for pension seekers in July last year was approximately 15.6 days, while the lead time up to the current date in July this year has increased to about 19.6 days due to the rainy season. However, considering the trend that the lead time shortens around July 15 every year, it is advisable to make reservations at least two weeks in advance if vacation plans have not yet been made.
This year, most pensions have set the peak season from July 26 to August 6. As many people flock to take summer vacations during the peak season, competition is intense. If you plan to take a summer vacation during the peak season, it is recommended to hurry with your reservation, and if you hope for a more reasonable price for your summer vacation, you can schedule your trip avoiding the peak season period.
If you want to find a popular pension, it is recommended to search in detail. Simple exposure rankings are likely to be dominated by resort-level or higher pensions that naturally have a large number of visitors. Therefore, most domestic portals and accommodation platforms where users book pensions recently have enabled filter selections in addition to keyword input to provide a detailed search environment. As customers actively express their preferences, the system can recommend popular pensions that suit them. If you want to find private hidden popular pensions, detailed searching is essential.
Kihoon Son, CEO of Trip Eleven, stated, “We analyze that consumer sentiment has contracted, leading to more meticulous and cautious decisions in summer vacation reservations,” and added, “We hope you prepare for a regret-free summer vacation by referring to this guide.”
