Add a Weather Guarantee Up to the Day Before a Booking
We’ve improved our blended forecast to offer more guests the assurance of good weather—even when they book at the last minute.

Before, guests could only add a Weather Guarantee when booking five or more days in advance. Now, guests can add a Weather Guarantee in as little as 24 hours in advance of their reservation.
This means guests who are booking only a day or two in advance and guests with an uncertain weather forecast no longer have to worry - they can add a Weather Guarantee to their booking and Sensible will watch the weather for them.
This gives our partners new ways to use Weather Guarantees to improve your business
- Increase bookings in the days before an uncertain forecast
- Decrease cancellations by letting guests add a Weather Guarantee to their existing reservation instead of canceling
Weather Guarantees will automatically be available on close-in reservations for partners using Sensible’s API or Post-booking email campaigns starting August 4th, 2022. As a partner, you won’t need to make any changes to your existing integration.
If you’re not integrated with Sensible yet, reach out to our Partnerships team to get set up!
How it works
Sensible uses our probabilistic forecasting capabilities and the processing speed of our Climate Engine to create a richer view of forecast uncertainty in real time. This allows us to offer Weather Guarantees a few days in advance, even when your phone app shows rain.
Important to Know
Weather Guarantees will not always be available. If our analysis shows certainty of weather having a negative impact, then we will not be able to offer a Weather Guarantee.
Only available to integrated partners. Sensible’s API and other implementation methods are easy to launch and allow for fully dynamic pricing. Want to get access? Contact our partnerships team.
