Flight prices are adjusted far more frequently than rental properties. Just get updates on a tracked flight ~6 months from now and watch it change weekly or even daily.

- ceejayoz 4y agoNor do the plane tickets I bought six months ago. The price if you purchase today changes daily, in both scenarios.
- admax88qqq 4y agoYeah fair point. I don't know what point I was trying to make.
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> Flight prices are adjusted far more frequently than rental properties To my knowledge, airline pricing algorithms are fiercely guarded and competitive. Hotels, less so, but it's a fragmented space. RealPage, in contrast, is a single algorithm coordinating pricing for large sections of the market.
- woodruffw 4y agoI think that's irrelevant to what I'm saying: the prices on airline fares can go up and down in any time increment, because what drives them (to my understanding) is not opaque algorithmic pricing. If they're being pulled from the airline's GDS, it's just the bucket's price.
