How to sync Airbnb calendar with Expedia?

[Lara225]

Anyone know how to sync Airbnb and Expedia calanders?

 I would be happy with importing the Airbnb calendar into Expedia as Airbnb is my master calendar. 

I’ve managed to sort this process out with loads of other booking platforms, just not expedia. I don’t want to use a Channel Manager.

would be greatful if anyone could tell me how to do it simply by taking Airbnb’s feed and adding it into expedias calander feed. 

Thank you

I got the same issue and raised an email to Expedia. This is the reply I got from them.

"Dear Nadun

Greetings from Expedia Group!

Please note iCal does not allow you to synchronize AirBnB with Expedia

However, you may use iCal to synch your Expedia extranet calendar onto your MacBook

Thanks

I subscribed for Effective Tours channel manager for that. For a price of a beer ( $5 ) per month I've got nearly instant sync across 6 channels.

Hi All

You can now sync your Expedia calendar.

They have hidden the option in an obscure menu. 

From Partner Central got to Rooms and Rates. Then Room Types and Rate Planes. On the right hand side you will see a link "Manage Connected Calendars"

Hope this helps.

Hi

Wondering if this option is still valid or expedia has moved the Manage Connected Calendars somewhere else.

Hi Tony,

For me finding the sync menu is not the issue, I have synced Expedia with Booking.com and vice versa, I have also synced Expedia's calendar to Air B&B but cannot import any Air B&B room calendars into Expedia.

Does anyone have a possible solution or are they simply not compatible?

Many thanks,

James.

I've had the same problem.  Last year I tried managing the sync with Expedia and ended with a double booking and Expedia were a nightmare and wanted to change me £250 if I cancelled.  I have since cut them out but would like to give them another go if I can sort the sync out. It works well between airbnb, booking.com and TripAdvisor.

Hi, I have spent three weeks emailing and phoning Air B&B on this issue. I am not able to import an Expedia calendar into my Air B&B sync calendars. I can export my Air B&B calendar to Expedia though. I had the same problem with Booking.com last year but this was sorted at the admin side by Air B&B and it works superbly. I finally got what I thought was a straight answer from Air B&B and they claimed they were simply not compaticle, yet, with any Expedia calendars. I said that means I will be forced to choose between you and them. They said yes that was the case. I have fed back to Expedia mostly to say I cannot be the firts person to have encountered this issue, apparently I am.  Anybody been successful in being on Expedia and Air B&B ?
