Automatic replies / out of office

[Chantal1061]

Is there a way to set an out of office message? We will be on a hike in the wop-wops for a couple of days and won't have internet. I've set the listing to snooze during those dates (I hope it is in local timezone btw as we are almost a day ahead of the US!), but I can't seem to be able to set an out of office for in case one of our existing bookings gets in touch!

Hey @Chantal1061, Happy New Year! 

Hiking sounds amazing! Be sure to come back and share your pics with us! I did have to Google wop-wops though 😅 It does look beautiful! 

I'm not sure on an answer to this one, but perhaps some hosts might be able to help - @Joan2709, @Mike-And-Jane0 or @Kitty-and-Creek0 might be able to advise? 🤞

@Chantal1061 There is no out-of-office ability with Airbnb.

As @Mike-And-Jane0  said, there's no out of office message yet available on the platform. I've wondered too, how to handle this, as there seems no way to take "time off." It would seem that if you snoozed, or blocked all the dates open on your calendar you'd not show up in search and thus not be open to inquiries. There's no feature on our phones that I can find, either.  

This would be a very helpful service that the platform could likely provide. Even front desk and reservations clerks get time off. When I travel it is usually for several weeks at a time, and almost always to places where I cannot easily be reached. 

Do have a marvelous time and share when you return! Happy New Year!
