Set Cancellation Policy for Specific Dates
Airbnb will soon let you change your cancellation policy for specific dates. This is incredibly useful for compression events such as World Cup. Vrbo already has this feature. My hope is to have this available soon.

We checked in with Airbnb and they confirmed this feature is not yet available, except to a small number of hosts in the experiment. Late Feb/early March is the latest guidance.
Thanks @Raymond Corbin for sharing the link to this article; Airbnb will be correcting the article shortly to make it clear the feature is not live yet.

Thanks for chasing that! Always conflicting information from their support 😵💫

Hello @Ken Cox and @Desmond Howard I just started working on this feature and I would love to get feedback from both of you about how it looks like now.
I'm planning to add it to the calendar. It would look something like this on the side bar so that you can select the cancelation policy for specific dates. This is a mockup of what it would look like:
And then it would show in the calendar as well if you have something selected.
Anything else I must get absolutely right about this new feature?

Thank you for the message. This is very important because of the World Cup. I would suggest not adjusting the minimum stay requirement as part of this. Minimum stays are handled through my pricing provider and this is something we do not want overwritten. If we leave this area blank, will it keep the current settings?
Do you have an idea of when this will be available? As of now, I believe Airbnb has it available in my area.
Thank you,
Ken Cox

Would be great to have this in time for the World Cup. It seems that the only way to do this currently is to disconnect Hospitable from Airbnb.
