Free Cancelation - no boost

I just have notice that sometimes the "free cancelation" from the aparments is already shown in the main search and i understand that a the guest could prefer this option. Nevertheless, I think that to encourage or to push this option is very dangerous-complicated for the hosts with one apartment.

If your guest cancels 3/5 days free of charge before arrival, it will be quite complicated to rent it again and we will all loose

thank you for posting Margarita, I notice also, when walking thru this on the phone, with an airbnb rep, that my listing doesn't even show anymore....i am a superhost and have the Instant Book feature, both of which i was told would give me a slight edge in searches.....but now i see on page after page of listings, they all have "Free Cancellation" feature.....i feel railroaded against my best interests.  once again, i have to switch to Airbnb's corporate standard of cancellation policy or i lose my only source of income.
