Changing. Booking dates that haven’t been released

[Lucy1119]

Hi I’m trying to change the date of my booking from March to December but I can’t seem to book for December because it doesn’t show as available that said the host has said it’s okay for me to change the dates but he doesn’t know how to change it either how do I go about doing this before I get charged ?

Not sure why the host doesn't know how to do this -he just needs to open his calendar for December 😀😀😀

Hi @Lucy1119 

It sounds like the host's calendar is blocked for December, but hopefully they would've mentioned it to you if there were bookings in place. So it's likely that they've set an availability window of 3 or 6 months, which is keeping December blocked for now.

There's nothing you can do if this is the case - the host will first have to extend the availability window on their calendar to include December. Or alternatively, there's an option that they can tick to allow booking requests beyond their availability window.

Once the calendar is open and bookable for December, you can click on your reservation and select "Change Reservation" near the bottom of the booking to request a date change. The host will have to approve the change.

If the host doesn't manage to extend the availability window, or if I've misdiagnosed the issue, they can always ask here in the Community Center and there will be plenty of people to assist.
