What is "rack rate or above" message?

C'est une question posée sur un site d'hotel.

Rack rate signifie "plein tarif".

Qu'est-ce qu'un message "plein tarif ou supérieur"? Ne signifie pas grand chose pour moi.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

plein tarif (en vigueur) òu supérieur
Explanation:
This will relate to the ability to sub let or where the company operating the asset is not the owner. The owner wants to make sure that the vlaue of the asset (or his residual interest in it) is not diminshed by it being it being let or used at a lower value than it could be.
Eg if a company XXX that owns a building leases it to another company YYY that wants to sublet individual parts, the owner company XXX may want to stop these lettings being at a low rent as it would lower the value of the amount he might ask in the future if he wants to sell on his right to receive the rent from YYY to ZZZ or when it comes to reviewing the rent he could ask from YYY
I think your translation makes sense on this basis, even if the situation is slightly different from the one I describe

plein tarif est explicite, tarif supérieur: événements ou périodes de pointe où s\'appliquent des tarifs encore supérieurs au plein tarif
