Overview
Selecting the activity pricing type is essential when creating a stop or a transit (i.e., multi-day) activity. This choice impacts the overall display and the offer definition for the activity.
This article focuses on the occupancy-based option for an activity, where the pricing structure is calculated per passenger (PAX) in a room.
Know more:
Discover how to create a stop or transit activity in our How to create a Transit Activity for Multi-Day Tours? article.
Note: The activity type - standard activity or occupancy-based activity - can only be defined upon activity creation. Once saved, it cannot be changed.
Adding Occupancy-Based Categories and Seasons

Previously defined room categories will be displayed, along with any already existing seasons

In the Add room category popup, provide:
The name for the new room category
The room types (one or more) and associated occupancy from the list

Removing an Occupancy-Based Category
You can delete occupancy-based categories by following these steps:
Select the activity and click Checkout & Open from the actions menu in the top right corner
Click on the Room Categories tab
Identify the room category you wish to remove
Click the Delete Category button
Confirm the deletion action in the popup that appears
Note: A room category can only be deleted if there are no open allotments associated with it. If open allotments exist, an error message will be displayed, preventing the deletion from impacting existing bookings.
Planner Display
Planner users can select the room type and allocate the desired number of passengers (PAX) per available room. Occupancy-based pricing allows customers to modify room allocations by clicking the minus or plus signs.
Important:
TripBuilder will only allow bookings to proceed once all travellers have been assigned rooms.
