I have a guest who needs to cancel to due state travel restrictions. Fine, no problem, full refund is okay, but the support rep has left me hanging! They stated that "I will cancel the reservation, process full refund for your guest and make sure no penalties on your end." Note the *I* - implies to me that he needs to do the cancelling, but he hasn't replied since yesterday morning and I'd like to get the calendar cleared off ASAP so we can replace this booking.
Does anyone know who should submit the cancellation request in this case? Does support need to do it, should I ask the guest to do it, or should I just go ahead and do it? I want to be sure she gets her full refund including fees.
@Stacie25 absolutely do not do it yourself-- you will be penalized and the dates will be blocked. I would call Airbnb at 1-415-800-5959. Make sure the rep understands that you are not cancelling; the guest wishes to cancel and you are willing to accommodate their request.

Salut @Stacie25,
You do not need the assistance from the support team.
As long you agreed on the full refund, do ask your guest to cancel immediately.
Communication with your guest that you will send money to your guest right away after the cancellation confirm.
If your guest doesn't wish to do it's >
You can go ahead to cancel by your side, but select the correct reason and read carefully the cancellation summary in the next page.
Do select the once which is not affecting your listing and penalty-free.
But your calendar remains block if you cancel by yourside.

@Stacie25 Lisa answered your question, but why are you not just using the flexible cancellation policy if you're willing to refund anyway? Save yourself this kind of headache.
I opened a new support case and it was resolved *subito*. I don't know what happened with the first case - I still haven't gotten a reply and it hasn't been closed; they totally dropped the ball.
