" Unavailable for Request "

[Dave911]

Anybody know why one of my listings has " unavailable for requests " blocked out on the calender through the next 8 days?

I have checked all my settings, all look same as other listing which is fine.

is it something Airbnb has done?

@Dave911 Its because it is currently illegal to hosts guests in the UK unless they are key workers. Airbnb have taken this one step further and just blocked all dates to May 8th (I think) for any type of guest unless you are registered with their first responder scheme.

No idea why the other listing is not blocked

I have the same problem with my listing in Brazil. But I not aware of any prohibition. Incidentally, I've rented the house twice in the past 2 weeks.
