Change cancellation policy for specific dates only

Hosts have asked for this feature apparently for years but it still cannot be done as far as I can see.  

I submitted feedback a couple times, crickets.

Support can't help, they are not airbnb.  They did agree would be a great feature!

 

Is there someone like an airbnb product manager who can review this request and do something about it? 

Or, would be nice to know why it cannot be done or why airbnb thinks it would be a bad feature.

 

Perhaps moderator can comment, or another host knows more.

 

This feature would be great for high demand dates like events. Thank you.

The guest would only need to be aware of the cancellation policy for the dates they reserve. They would not even know or need to know that other dates have a different policy. Just like different dates have different prices, different dates have different policy associated with them. Guests can figure it out by actually reading the agreement they sign upon confirming a reservation.  And if you think it's confusing, you don't have to use this feature on your listings.

@Bhumika After several months, I'm following up.  I got no reply to feedback form nobody ever replies to this.  I've since discovered VRBO offers this exact feature called Seasonal Cancellation policy.  It seems airbnb is falling behind.  What can we do about it?
