Major events can supercharge bookings – or completely overwhelm your operations.

In the first episode of Turnover Tactics, a new series from Host Planet powered by Turno, we explore how short-term rental hosts can operate smoothly during high-demand events like the FIFA World Cup 2026, taking place across the US, Canada, and Mexico.

Joined by Chris Rule from Turno and Katelyn Almeda from Host With Kate, we cover rapid turnovers, back-up cleaners, pricing strategies, setting expectations, and the systems you need to secure five-star reviews when guest volume peaks.

If you’re showing up for major events in 2026, this episode will help you do it profitably, professionally, and without panic.
