Calendar still show not available

[Yeela1]

HI 

I  had to cancel a guest who booked one night during a time that I am away and have no one to welcome him. I can host for a longer period at that time bit not for this night only. My is this date blocked on the calendar if it has being cancelled?

Hello @Yeela1,

The date is blocked on your calendar because you cancelled the guest's booking. This is just one of the penalties Airbnb imposes on hosts who cancel.

See i-m-a-host--what-penalties-apply-if-i-need-to-cancel-a-reservation?

Keeping you calendar up to date is one of the standards that Airbnb expects of hosts. See What are hosting standards?

Steve.
