Cease accepting bookings after a certain date

[Howard-and-Cathie0]

We want to stop accepting bookings after the end of June 2023. How can we set that up?

Many thanks.

@Howard-and-Cathie0 just block your calendar for dates post June 2023

It is not possible to cease accepting bookings after a certain date. If we book it for ourselves then airbnb service fee will be applied. If we have a 3 months window or 1 year window then the date after the 3 months or 1 year is already blocked . We cannot block it on top of that. But as the week passes, another week opens and we cannot always manually keep track of it(of blocking it). So this is a bad system inplace. The only way to overcome this , for me atleast, is to put an exorbitant amount for the dates you dont want the booking to happen. So even if they automatically opens up, no one will book it.

Yes, that's what I ended up doing. I booked it in my name from 1st July 2023 to 31st Dec 2025 which gets added to the iCal calendar on my server. airBNB and other platforms read that file and block the dates automatically.
