Gents and ladies generally book appts with a local or traveling lady to your city or where you are traveling to?
If a lady decides to tour your city and posts her schedule 2+ wks ahead of travel when do you reach out if interested?
Just curious as I do a bit of traveling and many times to the same cities I always have a couple of gents who always wait until the last minute. Despite mentioning they have seen the ads in advance. When asked if it was due to scheduling they just say they like to wait until day of arrival.

2-3 days before the arrival date, and I will pick a session date that is 3-5 days AFTER the arrival date, in case there are last minute travel issues.   Plans are less likely to change by then.  I tried booking further out a few times and then the arrival date changes, so its sometimes  an exercise in futility.  If there are not enough bookings to justify the trip a few days before the arrival date, they will often push back the date.  I don't like to keep changing my own schedule to match.  

I would say 95% of my sessions are booked same day.  

If I am traveling to Vegas, as an example, and I want to meet a certain lady, I will book well in advance. Like the previous poster, my schedule is likely to change at short notice.  I hate to have to cancel with a provider so most of my appointments are same day appointments.  

I prefer the earliest appointment possible. So, I generally schedule 1 to 3 days in advance.  
But I occasionally do same day appointments, too.  
If I want a specific day I will schedule up to a week in advance. It’s much harder to do. But sometimes I’m in the mood for a special date that may take a little preparation. Or I know that there is a specific day coming up that I know without a doubt that I’ll be free.

cancelled four times in 12 years.  One was a car accident I was in ON THE WAY to the session.  The other three were emergency hospitalizations of family members.  When I book, its cast in stone on my side, barring these types of emergencies.  I know a lot of guys cancel arbitrarily and it bugs the shit out of the providers.

My ATF was someone I could call up, and she would get ready and come over right away. My current favorite, Chanel Odette, is extremely busy because she also does porn, custom shoots, phone sex, etc. So I have to either book my her calendar or volunteer to fill in for cancellations or no shows on my days off. If I am visiting a certain city and want to see someone, I will start the conversation a month in advance.

Some ladies want advance bookings, and honor them.  I see those ladies on days I'm sure in advance will be OK for me.  
Some ladies (and agencies) book only same day, or day before.  I see them when I can't be sure of my schedule a week out.  

is my average, although I'll sometimes book even farther in advance.

For me it is a week or at least two days. If repeating, I book X day of the week. For traveling companion... months ahead of time have happened.
I cancel very rarely. May be 3 or 4 times in last 10 years.

The first is to get the most advantageous time.

When I travel, about one week out. Sometimes I'll try to schedule someone when I'm on the 15 past Yermo for that night. When I'm at home, I'll schedule the morning of. Yes I'm not good at it and I get alot of shit for it but it's me.

Locally, I tend to book same day, or the day before at the earliest.  While home, my schedule can change on a whim.

I'm not sure of the nature of Jaydalee's Q (general info or planning purposes), but the "planning purposes" has come up in older threads on touring: sometimes in Newbie, sometimes General, sometimes a specific city where Provider feedback varied ("Worst city ever for cancellations." to "Great place! Six tours, not one cancel!").
.
I recall that some frequently touring Providers mentioned that they learned from experience how much they needed to book, or overbook, before committing to a particular trip. The cancel rate wasn't always the same for everyone in every city, but each Provider who commented seemed to "know" their own best and worst cities.
.
E.g., one Provider might need to prebook 100% of her available time before actually making the trip to, e.g., Boston. She knows that she has a 25% cancel rate in Boston but a +15% last minute scheduling rate for Boston and it all works out for her. Another touring Provider might only have a 10% cancel rate and lots of "same day" appointment requests in Boston and is willing to make the trip with only 50% of her available time pre-booked. And, of course, there may be a Provider who overbooks by 50% or 100% because their Boston clientele has a high flake rate and she doesn't want to get burned on her trip.  
.
As I recall, there wasn't a consensus on any worst city for cancellations: each Provider had her own good or bad experiences and preferences. Some Providers have a good rep (and Reviews) and they were confident to get "next day" or "same day" bookings but that it varies by city. ("They love me in Boston; I'm invisible in Chicago.")  
.
I don't know if that's the sort of info that Jaydalee was looking for while planning a return from the COVID-19 shutdowns. I won't go into all the factors that can affect the success of a tour, especially (1) post-pandemic where EVERYTHING has changed for everybody and (2) visiting any new city for the first time (no prior experience on which to plan for cancels / same day appointments) and (3) local board participation and rep.

I appreciate your time to respond.

I have no problem booking early especially with a well established lady like yourself is visiting. When a lady is traveling I think she wants to know her trip will be worthwhile. I think you want to know there will be gents eagerly waiting for you when you visit our city. So if you advertise you are coming in say a month from now and you are on my radar I will book as far in advance as needed.  

When I travel, I will book weeks ahead as I know I will be in that place, for certain amount days.  I avoid booking the day of arrival, too many problems with flight logistics and delays.  Usually the night before I leave.  

Jaydalee I'm very much enamored of you as you know and I'm very well aware you don't come to NM. I'm prepared when I go to LV to ask you to meet and of course you'll ask for my references, when, where, and for how long.  

I generally have an idea where and when I will be places, so I usually reach out about a month in advance. I like planning shit

48hrs, a week, or a month in advance, but the longer we have to plan the better!

I can appreciate your honesty. Some will not be sure of schedule and book and then have to cancel.
I am happy that majority of times whether days,weeks,or a day before scheduled gents keep their appts

I prefer for a client to contact me once they have arrived in Las Vegas. Schedules change often, especially flights, so I prefer to schedule once someone is settled at their hotel in Vegas. I only need about an hour notice, but prefer 2 hours notice.

Two hours with Jaydalee. Just put me on your calendar, whenever you come to Phoenix. I'll make it work. Give me a weeks notice to be sure I take my vitamins, and let the anticipation build.

Obviously that wasn't the response you were looking for. In any case, it is what it is, Jaydalee.  

After reading this thread, I realized I'm a freak.  I start planning as soon as I know my travel plans.  Sometimes that's 3 or 4 weeks in advance.  Guess that's because mostly I only meet with regulars and the rare new adventure.  Of course I'll confirm as the date gets closer, but I enjoy the anticipation, and even more if the lady likes to engage in conversation to break the ice and know each other better.

Freaks
I hate them

You plan in advance there is nothing wrong with that. Everyone is different some know their schedule and others do not.

If it is a lady that I really want to see or have wanted to see for a while or have seen before and really liked, then I will generally reach out to her as soon as I see her ad and I will attempt to "make time" or clear my schedule (5%).  Doesn't happen often however because there is so much great local talent.  On the other hand, if it is a lady that I was more on the fence about seeing, then I will typically just note the ad and maybe book her if my schedule allows which is usually a few days before arrival (85-90%).  But there are also those impulse bookings where my schedule opens up or I am just in the mood (5-10% and increasing).  Those are usually a day prior or the same day.

I just saw your headline and the first thing that popped into my head is "why is VOR posting about disposable underwear?  I have to read this."

But I also have booked last second. I reach out when interested.
