As @Zandra says, no-one knows for sure but I estimate it to be 4 - 6 weeks. If you’re lucky, that means that you can get bookings well in advance during those weeks and you might find that you’re booked for several months thanks to the boost. Be sure to make the most of it!

And beware of advice such as:

There is a thread here about how far in advance guests book and you’ll see that every host finds this to be different.

Exactly. I often book a solid week booking a month or so out, but usually I start a month 50% booked and end the month at 95% booked. I was actually amazed that my place sat empty last night as I often get a last minute IB for people traveling. If you’re a vacation destination, then I would expect to get most of your bookings at least 1-2 months in advance. I get a good mixture of everything and don’t mind 1-2 night stays, especially at the last minute to fill in the calendar and often get those booked just a day in advance.
