Abstract: A method, apparatus and program product utilize a materialization rate of a group booking to reduce the potential underutilization of travel provider inventory due to cancelations associated with the group booking. In particular, a group quantity associated with a group booking for a particular travel segment is distributed to one or more individual booking classes for that travel segment, and the availability of the individual booking classes is thereafter adjusted based on the materialization rate associated with the group booking. As such, the availability of the individual booking classes may effectively be increased to account for the likelihood of cancelations associated with group booking, and thereby open the individual booking classes to additional bookings.
