Calendar glitch?

Hello everyone,  

I just noticed that when a guest is looking at available dates, airbnb is blocking the day before all reservations.  I have checked my settings and dont think I have anything set to cause this.  I am attaching a screen shot incase I am missing something.  I am also attaching a sample of the calendar that should show Friday and Saturday night available but only show the Friday.  I would appreciate any help with this.

Thanks

Susan

Hi @Susan1181 I hope you are well!

 

I've just had a look at your calendar on the listing you sent the screenshots of- it's showing availability to book the Fri and Sat nights as it should do, so I don't know if you have managed to fix the issue or if it was a short-term glitch.

 

I couldn't see from your screenshots that you had changed your settings to cause the issue, so no idea what could have happened, but all looks fine!

 

Best wishes

Hi Paul

Thank you for looking at this for me and responding.  I’m not sure why when I look at it as a traveller it only shows the Friday available for February and March.  We have a guest that is from Sunday to Friday for those months and we were hoping that someone could still book the Friday and Saturday night if needed.  

Glad to know that other people see it open 

Again thank you for your time!

take care

@Susan1181, I believe it is that "At least 1 day's Advance notice" that you have set on your preferences. Try removing that and see if it frees up your calendar.

Thanks Emilia!  I wasn’t sure if that would affect it or not.  I will try that.  

Have a great day!

Let us know if that clears it up. You can also go in and manually unblock those dates on your calendar. I do want to say that I think you will have some days get blocked off with a two night stay because you will probably have single days sandwiched in between two night stays, which then nobody will be able to book. I believe you can go in and make those days available after they are auto-blocked.

Hi Leslie 

i think it is just the way the calendar works.  When looking as a traveler it only shows a price for the Friday and Saturday is grey. However I can select Friday and Saturday and book it.  

I just wish the Saturday wasn’t greyed out as guests may think it’s not available. 

Thank you to everyone with all the suggestions and help

Susan
