With a fixed capacity, a highly disposable product and high fixed costs, hotels are a natural candidate for the application of revenue management. Originally developed by the airlines in the 1970s, these analytics-based techniques help predict consumer behavior at the hotel’s market level so that the hotel can sell each room each night at the optimum price.

TOP REVIEWS FROM THE FUNDAMENTALS OF REVENUE MANAGEMENT: THE CORNERSTONE OF REVENUE STRATEGY
Very good. Just a few minor draw backs, most of the online complimentary links for reading and videos are not working or require you to sign in to a third party account.
very useful and rich with it content , the complimentary reading is awesome and indeed needed
the final exam is a bit hard , i do recommend it for people who are seeking knowledge in RM
Overall pretty clear and very informative. However a lot of the extra reading materials were links that no longer work. Otherwise, very concise introduction to this topic.
Good course. To be honest, I didn't like the final exam. I think the exercises are too simplified and have a lot of assumptions, specially for the elasticity of demand of some customer segments
