Warning – ‘blocked’ dates not automatically inserted into Airbnb

Airbnb will automatically update their calendar for ‘bookings’ made on other sites. BUT, they DO NOT guarantee ‘blocked’ dates you’ve made on other sites will be synchronized – Source.

The solution around this problem is to use a professional Channel Manager program to manage the synchronization between. Channel Managers hand both bookings and blocked dates and share the results with all their connected platforms equally.
