Holiday Extra Fees
Purpose
Holiday charges are automatically added to bookings with pickup and/or drop off dates that fall on a date that has been set as a holiday.
For example you may want to charge an additional fee for allowing reservations with pickup or drop-off dates on Christmas Day, which is a public holiday.
The first step in creating the Holiday extra fee is setting the fee up in the 'Extra Fees' table so that you can select it when creating your holiday.
Note that the extra fee you create needs to be a 'Fixed Rate' fee. Please refer to the Extra Fees article if you need assistance setting up the extra fee.
