overbooking
Danh từ
This term is primarily used in the travel and hospitality industries to describe a strategic business practice. It carries a negative connotation for the consumer, as it implies a risk of being denied service despite having a confirmed reservation. In professional contexts, it is often discussed as a tool for revenue management to offset "no-shows."
As an uncountable noun referring to a general business practice or policy, it does not typically take a plural form. When referring to a specific instance of the act, it remains treated as a mass noun or a gerund-derived noun.
