How to Set Seasonal Online Availability per Experience

Give one experience its own online booking rules and off-season dates from its experience page, separate from your system default.

Each experience follows your system default for online availability unless you override it. Overriding an experience gives it its own booking rules. For example, you can block it during months it doesn't run, or accept only Request to Book during the shoulder season.


Set online availability for an experience

  1. Click Experiences in the left sidebar, then click the experience you want to edit.

  2. Scroll down to Online availability.

  3. Turn on the Override toggle.

  4. Under Availability settings, choose how clients can book:

    • Locations: open spots are based on remaining capacity at the locations you select.

    • Guides: open spots are based on guide availability.

    • Slots: you set a fixed number of open spots.

    • Request to book: every online booking comes in as a request for you to approve.

    • Fully blocked: the experience can't be booked online.

  5. Set any extra options for your choice:

    • For Guides, use Advanced settings to pick All guides or Eligible guides.

    • For Guides or Slots, enter a number in Additional slots to open more spots beyond that count.

    • To add another condition, click Add limit rule. A booking must meet every rule to be booked instantly.

  6. Under Allow instant online booking, enter the Instant booking cutoff time in days before the start date. Trips starting inside this window switch to Request to Book.

  7. Under Set off-season range, click Add off-season range to set a date range as Request to book or Fully blocked. For example, you can fully block November through December, or accept only Request to Book from January through February.

    • Repeat for each season you need.

  8. Check the Yearly Preview to see which dates are Fully blocked, Request to book, or Instant booking.

  9. Click Save & Next in the top right. This saves your changes and opens Step 2, Checklist template.

The fields shown depend on the option you choose. When Request to book is selected, only the Yearly Preview appears below it.


Note: To set online availability for several experiences at once, use the Manage by experience tab, which lists every experience in one place. See How to Set Instant Book or Request to Book.
