Dates within the availability window show as blocked

[Sridevi3]

Hi! I have my availability on my listing's calendar set to three months in advance, i.e, dates beyond 3 months will show blocked to guests on the calendar. But even dates 2  months from now are blocked off.

Can anyone help, please?

Those dates in june are probably blocked manually by yourself.

Because 14/15 june show as available.

Try to set all dates in june as available in the listing calender.

@Emiel1 Thanks for your reply, Emiel1! Only 14 is not blocked. I must have unblocked it when trying to check why all of them were blocked. It still shows all of June blocked

Is your calendar linked to another booking site @Sridevi3?

Also, the listing seems to have a different host - did he block dates?

[Sridevi3]

@Shelley159,

yes it is connected to VRBO, but I don’t have any bookings there either for those days

Oh also, Shelly , the other hostess my husband. It’s in his name. We both manage it, but it’s mostly me. I will also check with him if he manually blocked them.

Yes @Sridevi3 it's possible that one of you may accidentally have blocked the dates, either on Airbnb or VRBO.

If the calendars are linked correctly, the dates will be blocked on both sites. To be sure that you find the original place where the block occurred, you'll have to make sure that the dates are unblocked on both Airbnb and VRBO (otherwise the block will just come back next time the system auto-syncs).

Hi @Sridevi3, 

Have you managed to get to the bottom of it?

Shelley shared some further pointers that might help you get to the bottom of it, let us know how you're getting on please!

Thanks,

Emilie,

Thanks for following up. I will continue checking the calendar and open them up manually for now. Oh and also check if my husband blocked them too. 
Thank you!

Keep us posted @Sridevi3 🙏
