So it’s not that they haven’t been released - they have - they are just booked up already and ditto for cash.
As mentioned Glasgow is on the short list for Eurovision next May and many fans - and entering countries - have simply booked rooms in many of the shortlisted cities. If It isn’t Glasgow then expect a lot of inventory to open up within minutes of the announcement of which ever city it is!
I have a booking in Manchester (another strong possibility) for early May booked before it was even announced the UK was going to host. Prices are currently 3 times what I paid in both cash or miles. My booking isn’t Eurovision related I just like to book early as like Glasgow it’s a sports and concert destination even before special events like Eurovision and conferences get tossed onto the mix
The host city announcement is due easily next month.

Hi;
It is hard to believe that every single day from May 1, 2023 thru Sept is booked, while not a single day in April is booked up. Seems more like they have not released inventory yet post April 30. Seems Eurovision would not be the reason to hold inventory post-May. Has to be something else going on here.

I just did a random searches for 5 - 12 June, 10 - 12 July, 24 - 25 July and points rates are available. As they are 8-9th September - the end of the current booking window.
There is also availability from 3-13 August which is when the World Cycling Championships are being held in Glasgow.
So it’s quite clear inventory has been released.

Same owners and they share a revenue team so they will most likely all be released at or around the same time.
