Cell numbers for Business reservations

[Jennifer3725]

My boss wants me to book her business reservations, so I've set up an account using my company email. Her cell number is required for the reservation - the problem is her cell number is already associated with her personal Airbnb account, and I can't complete the reservation process. The system won't even give me the option of changing the phone number I entered.

What's the work-around for this?

Hello @Jennifer3725 

Presumably you are using Airbnb for Work to reserve for your boss right?  You can associate an existing Airbnb account to the reservation.  Just in case, here is a link for reserving business travel on Airbnb:

Hi Jennifer, if you aren't booking through Airbnb for business then essentially you are making a third party booking and that is against Airbnb rules. A lot of hosts will also be concerned about accepting a booking from a profile with no reviews. If your boss has her own Airbnb account with good reviews she would be better off booking her own accommodation.
