Skift Take

Big events should bring some relief to the U.S. short-term rental market following a year dominated by global travel trends.

The solar eclipse on April 8, will be a celestial event. It will be visible from 15 states across the U.S., parts of Mexico and Canada. 

The event is driving demand for short-term rentals. Skift reached out to PriceLabs, which sells revenue-management software, to look at price hikes in short-term rentals in U.S. cities along the eclipse path. 

PriceLabs mapped 10 cities that fall into the eclipse path, as revealed by NASA, and analyzed pricing trends in those markets.
